The unusual suspects: Depending on co-ligands L(n) and the effects of substituents (R), the well-known triazenides N(NR)2 may act as EPR detectable coordinated triazenyl ligands, N(NR)2. They are thus new non-innocent ligands and are related to the hitherto unused non-innocent nitrogen dioxide ligand, NO2.
