Dinitrogen connects molybdenum and phosphorus : The diazo(triorgano)phosphorane ligand Ph 2 MePN 2 is multiply bonded through its N‐terminus to molybdenum in the depicted cationic complex. The Ph 2 MePN 2 ligand was synthesized within molybdenum's coordination sphere by rational assembly from a precursor N 2 complex. Computational studies reveal the NN bond to be highly activated in the complex, which nonetheless readily fragments (with N 2 loss) upon one‐electron reduction.
