Published: October 2017

Molybdenum-catalyzed conversion of molecular dinitrogen into ammonia under ambient reaction conditions has been achieved by using a proton source generated in situ from the ruthenium-catalyzed oxidation of water in combination with visible light and a photosensitizer. The preset reaction system is considered as a new model for the nitrogen fixation by photosynthetic bacteria.
