title: Direct formation of an organonitrogen compound from a molybdenum nitrido species.
abstract: The molybdenum nitrido complex 15NMo[N(R)Ar]3 (where R = C(CD3)2CH3, Ar = 3,5-C6H3Me2) reacted with the anhydride of trifluoroacetic acid at room temperature to afford the correspondent organonitrogen compound in almost quantitative yield without the necessity of using additional reagents to achieve the C-N coupling.
