The use of the N-adamantyl-substituted tris(NHC)borate ligand phenyltris(3-(1-adamantylimidazol-2-ylidene))borate (PhB(AdIm)₃^-) has enabled the preparation of the high-spin tetrahedral iron(I)-and iron(0)-N₂ complexes[PhB(AdIm)₃Fe(N₂)] (2) and[K(18-C-6)(THF)] [PhB(AdIm)₃Fe(N₂)] (4), from the reduction of the ferrous precursor[PhB(AdIm)₃FeCl] (1) and the iron(I) complex 2 with KC₈ under N₂, respectively. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry for the iron centers in 2 and 4 with the terminally bonded N₂ ligand sitting in the cavity composed by the three adamantyl groups of the borate ligand. The frequencies of the N-N stretching resonance (1928 and 1807 cm^-1) of 2 and 4 are the lowest among the reported terminal N₂complexes of iron(I) and iron(0), respectively. ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectrum (δ=0.59 mms^-1; ΔE_Q=1.31 mms^-1) and solution magnetic susceptibility measurement (μ_eff=5.2(1) μ_B) of 2 supported its high-spin iron(I) nature. The cyclic voltammogram of 2 measured in THF shows a quasi-reversible redox waves with E_1/2=-2.11 V (vs SCE), which is assignable to the corresponding redox process of[PhB(AdIm)₃Fe(N₂)]^1-/0. In addition, the reaction of 2 with an excess amount of CO led to the formation of the bis(carbonyl)iron(I) complex, [PhB(AdIm)₃Fe(CO)₂] (3), that was characterized by IR spectrum, solution magnetic susceptibility measurement, ¹H NMR, as well as elemental analysis. The protonation of 2 and 4 with HCl or HOTf at -78℃ only led to the formation of NH₂NH₂ and NH₃ in low yields[less than 9(3)% and 5(3)% (per mol Fe), respectively]. However, 1, 2, and 4 proved effective catalysts for the reductive silylation of N₂by KC₈ and Me₃SiCl to afford N(SiMe₃)₃ with comparable catalytic activity. The TON of these catalytic systems could reach 87 using 0.005 mmol of the catalyst, 2000 equiv. of KC₈, and 2000 equiv. of Me₃SiCl in 10 mL Et₂O at room temperature after 24 h.
