Graphical Abstract

Dinitrogen fixations have previously been accomplished by using a strong reductant; H. Masuda et al. now present a dinitrogen activation method in their Communication on page 11279 ff. where dinitrogen is cleaved by one-electron oxidation of [Mo(depe)2(N2)2] using a mild oxidant to form the Mo≡N species.
