Abstract

This review attempts to survey the recent literature concerning the coordination chemistry and the reactivity patterns of metal-dinitrogen complexes. In order that this work may stand alone, a certain amount of background information is included; however, the emphasis is on synthesis and reactivity patterns of recently discovered dinitrogen complexes. In addition, some effort is made to discuss new trends in dinitrogen chemistry as well as to point out underdeveloped topics in this area. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
