The activation and functionalization of dinitrogen (N2) with carbon dioxide (CO2) are of great interest and importance but highly challenging. We report here for the first time the reaction of N2with CO2in a dititanium dihydride framework, which leads to N–C bond formation and N–N and C–O bond cleavage. Exposure of a dinitrogen dititanium hydride complex {[(acriPNP)Ti]2(μ2-η1:η2-N2)(μ2-H)2} (1) (acriPNP = 4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)-2,7,9,9-tetramethyl-9H-acridin-10-ide) to a CO2atmosphere at room temperature rapidly yielded a nitrido/N,N-dicarboxylamido complex {[(acriPNP)Ti]2(μ2-N)[μ2-N(CO2)2]} (2, 28%) and a diisocyanato/dioxo complex {[(acriPNP)Ti]2(NCO)2(μ2-O)2} (3, 52%) with release of H2. When the reaction of1with CO2(1 atm) was carried out at −50 °C, complex2was selectively formed in 82% yield within 5 min. Heating2at 80 °C under 1 atm CO2for 30 min afforded3in 67% yield. When1was allowed to react with 1.5 equiv of CO2at room temperature, an isocyanato/nitrido/oxo complex {[(acriPNP)Ti]2(NCO)(μ2-N)(μ2-O)} (4) was exclusively formed in 89% yield within 5 min. The reaction of4with CO2at room temperature almost quantitatively yielded the dioxo/diisocyanato complex3within 5 min. The mechanistic details were clarified by the15N- and13C-labeled experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, providing unprecedented insights into the reaction of N2with CO2. A titanium-mediated cycle for the synthesis of trimethylsilyl isocyanate Me3SiNCO from N2, CO2, and Me3SiCl using H2as a reducing agent was also established.
