Abstract

The article presents a study on the nitrous oxide (N2O) complexation by frustrated lewis pairs (FLP). It states that N2O is considered as a minor constituent of the atmosphere but it posed a strong environmental oxidant that is ∼300 times more potent as a greenhouse gas compare to carbon dioxide. The study suggests that frustrated lewis pairs bind nitrous oxide to give intact linkages.
