Abstract

Oxidation of NH 3 to N 2 by pentapyridyl metal complexes via hydrogen atom abstraction was investigated computationally. Quantum chemical analysis reveals insights on orbital symmetry requirements for efficient NH 3 oxidation. The most promising complex, [(PY5)Mo(NH 3 )] 2+ , was studied experimentally. It shows conversion of NH 3 to N 2 upon treatment with 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenoxyl radical.
