Abstract

{The dinitrogen complex ([NPN]Ta)(2)(mu(1)-eta(2):eta(2)-N-2)(mu-H)(2), 1, (where [NPN] = (PhNSiMe2CH2)(2)PPh) undergoes hydrosilylation with primary and secondary alkyl- and arylsilanes, giving a new N-Si bond and a new terminal tantalum hydride derived from one Si-H unit. Various primary silanes can be employed to give isolable complexes of the general formula ([NPN]TaH)(mu-N-N-SiHnR3-n)(mu-H)(2)(Ta[NPN]) (5
