Isolation of key intermediate complexes in dinitrogen functionalization is crucial for elucidating the mechanistic details and further investigation. Herein, the synthesis and characterization of (μ-η:η-N)(η-N)-Cr(I) and (η-N)-Cr(0) complexes supported by Cp* (Cp* = CMe) and NHC ligands were reported. Further functionalization of Cr(0)-N complex with silyl halides delivered the key intermediates in the alternating pathway, the chromium diazenido complex and the chromium side-on η-hydrazido complex . Protonation of led to the quantitative formation of NH. Moreover, the [η-MeSiNNSiMe] unit in enabled N-C bond formation reactions with CO and BuNCO, giving the corresponding ,-chelating hydrazidochromium complexes and , respectively.

Altering the edge sites of 2D MXenes for electrochemical dinitrogen reduction reaction (ENRR) is widely reported, whereas activation of its relatively inert basal planes is neglected. Herein, the activation and the optimization of the basal planes of TiCT (T = *F, *O, and *OH) MXenes toward enhanced ENRR to ammonia is reported. The balanced surface functionalization in TiCT regulates the ENRR kinetics by regulating the potential of zero charge (E) and the electrochemical work function ( ).

Nitrogenase is the enzyme primarily responsible for reducing atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia. There are three general forms of nitrogenase based on the metal ion present in the cofactor binding site, namely, molybdenum-dependent nitrogenases with the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMoco), the vanadium-dependent nitrogenases with FeVco, and the iron-only nitrogenases. It has been shown that the vanadium-dependent nitrogenases tend to have a lesser efficacy in reducing dinitrogen but a higher efficacy in binding and reducing carbon monoxide.

Marine anammox bacteria-based Fe(II)-driven autotrophic denitratation and anammox (MFeADA) was investigated for nitrogen removal from saline wastewater for the first time. The study demonstrated that varying influent doses of Fe(II), which participate in the Fe cycle, significantly influenced nitrogen removal performance by altering the fate of nitrite. When 50 mg/L Fe(II) was added, the nitrogen removal was mainly performed by the anammox and Fe(II)-driven autotrophic denitratation (FeAD).

Hydroxylamine, nitrous acid, and nitric oxide are obligate intermediates or side metabolites in different nitrogen-converting microorganisms. These compounds are unstable and susceptible to the formation of highly reactive nitrogen species, including nitrogen dioxide, dinitrogen trioxide, nitroxyl, and peroxynitrite. Due to the high reactivity and cytotoxicity, the buildup of reactive nitrogen can affect the interplay of microorganisms/microbial processes, stimulate the reactions with organic compounds like organic micropollutants (OMP) and act as the precursors of nitrous oxide (NO).

Introduction: Numerous studies have reported the beneficial effects of silicon (Si) in alleviating biotic or abiotic stresses in many plant species. However, the role of Si in Fabaceae facing environmental stress is poorly documented. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Si on physiological traits and nodulation efficiency in L.
