In this issue of Chem Catalysis, Arnold and co-workers describe Lewis acidic f- and d-block metal complexes that are catalysts for the conversion of N₂ into secondary and tertiary amines. The origins of the remarkable selectivity and tunability of product formation are discussed in relation to molecular structure.
