Paul J. Chirik coauthored research on four-coordinate cobalt pincer complexes and ligand modification through homolytic and heterolytic pathways. The study includes a dinitrogen complex with a modified ligand framework.
A ligand can undergo chemical change rather than acting only as an unchanged spectator around a metal. Tracking both the metal's electronic structure and the ligand's connectivity is therefore essential to understanding these complexes.[ref]
