Abstract
Several metalloenzymes, including [FeFe]-hydrogenase, employ cofactors wherein multiple metal atoms work together with surrounding ligands that mediate heterolytic and concerted proton-electron transfer (CPET) bond activation steps. Herein, we report a new dinucleating PNNP expanded pincer ligand, which can bind two low-valent iron atoms in close proximity to enable metal-metal cooperativity (MMC). In addition, reversible partial dearomatization of the ligand's naphthyridine core enables both heterolytic metal-ligand cooperativity (MLC) and chemical non-innocence through CPET steps. Thermochemical and computational studies show how a change in ligand binding mode can lower the bond dissociation free energy of ligand C(sp3)-H bonds by ∼25 kcal mol-1. H-atom abstraction enabled trapping of an unstable intermediate, which undergoes facile loss of two carbonyl ligands to form an unusual paramagnetic (S = ) complex containing a mixed-valent iron(0)-iron(i) core bound within a partially dearomatized PNNP ligand. Finally, cyclic voltammetry experiments showed that these diiron complexes show catalytic activity for the electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction. This work presents the first example of a ligand system that enables MMC, heterolytic MLC and chemical non-innocence, thereby providing important insights and opportunities for the development of bimetallic systems that exploit these features to enable new (catalytic) reactivity.

Abstract
Despite their connection to ammonia synthesis, little is known about the ability of iron-bound, bridging nitrides to form N-H bonds. Herein we report a linear diiron bridging nitride complex supported by a redox-active macrocycle. The unique ability of the ligand scaffold to adapt to the geometric preference of the bridging species was found to facilitate the formation of N-H bonds via proton-coupled electron transfer to generate a μ-amide product. The structurally analogous μ-silyl- and μ-borylamide complexes were shown to form from the net insertion of the nitride into the E-H bonds (E=B, Si). Protonation of the parent bridging amide produced ammonia in high yield, and treatment of the nitride with PhSH was found to liberate NH3 in high yield through a reaction that engages the redox-activity of the ligand during PCET.

Abstract
Room temperature photolysis of the bis(azide)cobaltate(II) complex [Na(THF)x][(ketguan)Co(N3)2] (ketguan = [(tBu2CN)C(NDipp)2]-, Dipp = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl) (3a) in THF cleanly forms the binuclear cobalt nitride Na(THF)4{[(ketguan)Co(N3)]2(μ-N)} (1). Compound 1 represents the first example of an isolable, bimetallic cobalt nitride complex, and it has been fully characterized by spectroscopic, magnetic, and computational analyses. Density functional theory supports a CoIII═N═CoIII canonical form with significant π-bonding between the cobalt centers and the nitride atom. Unlike other group 9 bridging nitride complexes, no radical character is detected at the bridging N atom of 1. Indeed, 1 is unreactive toward weak C-H donors and even cocrystallizes with a molecule of cyclohexadiene (CHD) in its crystallographic unit cell to give 1·CHD as a room temperature stable product. Notably, addition of pyridine to 1 or photolyzed solutions of [(ketguan)Co(N3)(py)]2 (4a) leads to destabilization via activation of the nitride unit, resulting in the mixed-valent Co(II)/Co(III) bridged imido species [(ketguan)Co(py)][(ketguan)Co](μ-NH)(μ-N3) (5) formed from intermolecular hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) of strong C-H bonds (BDE ∼ 100 kcal/mol). Kinetic rate analysis of the formation of 5 in the presence of C6H12 or C6D12 gives a KIE = 2.5 ± 0.1, supportive of a HAA formation pathway. The reactivity of our system was further probed by photolyzing benzene/pyridine solutions of 4a under H2 and D2 atmospheres (150 psi), which leads to the exclusive formation of the bis(imido) complexes [(ketguan)Co(μ-NH)]2 (6) and [(ketguan)Co(μ-ND)]2 (6-D), respectively, as a result of dihydrogen activation. These results provide unique insights into the chemistry and electronic structure of late 3d metal nitrides while providing entryway into C-H activation pathways.
