Abstrakt: The efficient activation and conversion of dinitrogen (N2) represent a significant challenge in sustainable chemistry, offering potential pathways for synthesizing valuable nitrogen-containing compounds while reducing the environmental impact of traditional nitrogen fixation processes. While transition metal catalysts have been extensively studied for this purpose, actinide complexes have been less explored but have recently emerged as promising candidates due to their unique electronic properties and reactivity. This Perspective systematically examines the recent advances in N2activation and conversion mediated by actinide complexes, with a particular focus on their synthesis, mechanistic insights, and catalytic capabilities.
