    Abstract We report a nickel complex for catalytic oxidation of ammonia to dinitrogen under ambient conditions. Using the aryloxyl radical 2,4,6‐tri‐tert‐butylphenoxyl (tBu3ArO⋅) as a H atom acceptor to cleave the N−H bond of a coordinated NH3ligand up to 56 equiv of N2per Ni center can be generated. Employing theN‐oxyl radical 2,2,6,6‐(tetramethylpiperidin‐1‐yl)oxyl (TEMPO⋅) as the H‐atom acceptor, up to 15 equiv of N2per Ni center are formed. A bridging Ni‐hydrazine product identified by isotopic nitrogen (15N) studies and supported by computational models indicates the N−N bond forming step occurs by bimetallic homocoupling of two paramagnetic [Ni]−NH2fragments. Ni‐mediated hydrazine disproportionation to N2and NH3completes the catalytic cycle.

    We report the synthesis of molybdenum and tungsten bromo dicarbonyl complexes (POCOPtBu)MIIBr(CO)2(M  =  Mo or W; POCOPtBu  =  κ3-C6H3-1,3-[OP( tBu)2]2) supported by an anionic PCP pincer ligand, and the chromium complex (PNPtBu)Cr0(CO)3(PNPtBu  =  2,6-bis(di- tert-butyl-phosphinomethyl)pyridine) bearing a neutral PNP pincer scaffold. The three group six complexes described in this study have been characterized by Liquid Injection Field Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry (LIFDI-MS), NMR, and IR spectroscopy. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies show the MoIIand WIIcomplexes adopt a six-coordinate distorted trigonal prismatic geometry, whereas the Cr0complex exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry.
