title: N-H activation of hydrazines by a heterobimetallic Zr-Co complex: promotion of one-electron chemistry at Zr.
abstract: A tris(phosphino)amide-ligated Zr-Co heterobimetallic complex has been shown to activate N-H bonds of hydrazine derivatives via a proton-coupled electron transfer process. Such reactivity is highly unusual for an early metal such as Zr, but is promoted by the adjacent redox active Co atom.
