Catalytic dinitrogen silylation by tris(pyrazolyl)borate-supported titanium complexes
Titanium dinitrogen complexes supported by tris(pyrazolyl)borate and alkoxide/aryloxide ligands catalyse N<sub>2</sub> silylation. Titanium silylimide and disilylamide model complexes represent the first well-defined group IV imide/amide catalysts for N<sub>2</sub> reduction. Silylamine release and regeneration of the dinitrogen complex highlight the potential of early transition metals for N<sub>2</sub> catalysis.
