Abstract
Reaction of nitrogen(I) oxide with nitrogen-fixing systems Li/Me3SiCl/MCln (MCln = CrCl3, CoCl2, Cp2TiCl2, FeCl3, CuCl2) was studied. In these systems nitrogen(I) oxide, molecular nitrogen, and air nitrogen undergo reductive silylation to tris(trimethylsilyl)amine. The efficiency of the process was estimated by the molar ratio of the tris(trimethylsilyl)amine formed to met al chloride MCln. The reaction of N2O with the nitrogen-fixing systems incl uding CoCl2 and Cp2TiCl2 is not exhausted by the reduction of the former to molecular nitrogen and its subsequent fixation by transition metal complex es.
