摘 要: 作为与人类文明和生存密切相关的重大研究方向,温和条件下氮气的活化与转化(固氮)研究在1970~1990年代曾经是国际上备受关注的研究领域.但是,由于该领域极具挑战性,研究进展缓慢以及世界学术文化的变化,进入21世纪以来从事相关基础研究工作的化学研究者急剧减少.然而,毋庸置疑,实现温和条件下氮气的活化与转化是人类需要解决的重大科学问题,是人类社会可持续发展的要求,是科学家尤其是化学家最重要的使命之一.将氮气直接转化为含氮有机化合物是氮气的直接应用之一,本综述总结和归纳了文献报道的金属促进的以氮气为原料直接生成含氮有机化合物的转化方法和反应机理,产物主要包括胺类,酰胺类,酰亚胺类,腈类,二氮烯类,连氮类,碳二亚胺类,异氰酸酯类及杂环类有机化合物.本综述不包括将氮气转化成氨气和部分还原及质子化产物的文献. As a grand research area closely related to human civilization and living,the activation and transformation of dinitrogen(nitrogen fixation) under mild conditions used to be a central research theme worldwide in the 1970's-1990's.Nitrogen fixation is the process by which atmospheric nitrogen is directly converted to a bioavailable form.This basic chemical reaction process is essential to sustaining all life on this planet.However,due to great challenging of the nature of this research,slow progress and worldwide change of academic culture,the number of researchers engaged in this fundamental research area has been drastically reduced.Nevertheless,there is no doubt that realizing activation and transformation of dinitrogen under mild conditions is a grand scientific problem that people need to solve,required by sustainable development of human society.It is thus one of the most important missions of scientists,especially chemists.Three types of N-containing products can be obtained through direct transformation of dinitrogen.The most popular one is the formation of ammonia NH3 and NxHy.The industrial Haber-Bosch process,which requires harsh reaction conditions such as high temperature and pressure and uses at least 1%-2% of the annual primary energy supply in the world,is still the main method to produce ammonia from molecular dinitrogen and dihydrogen gases.Inspired by the investigation of nitrogenase and the discovery of the first molecular nitrogen complex in 1965,chemists have paid more attention to achieving the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia with transition metal complexes either as regents or as catalysts.Reports on the other two types of products,the N—E(E=P,Si) bonding compounds,and the N—C bonding compounds,are very rare.Compared with ammonia,nitrogen-containing organic compounds such as amines,amides,imides,amino acids and aza-heterocycles are also high-value products.This review mainly summarizes the progress in the field of direct transformation of molecular nitrogen to nitrogen-co
