Tetrahedral iron featuring an appended Lewis acid: distinct pathways for the reduction of hydroxylamine and hydrazine

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: We present the preparation of a nitrogen-based bidentate ligand featuring an appended boron Lewis acid as well as its tetrahedral Fe2+ and Zn2+ complexes. These complexes act as platforms for hydrazine and hydroxylamine capture and reduction chemistry.
