Building up from scratch : The Gd 2 molecule reacts with N 2 in solid argon to form a homoleptic dinuclear dinitrogen complex containing a drastically activated side‐on and end‐on bonded N 2 ligand (see scheme; Gd orange, N blue). The complex rearranges to a planar cyclic [Gd(μ‐N) 2 Gd] isomer with a completely cleaved NN bond, which further dimerizes to form a cubic [Gd 4 N 4 ] cluster, a building block for (GdN) x nanoparticles.
