The reduction of nitrogen oxides (NxOyn−) to dinitrogen gas by samarium(II) iodide is reported. The polyoxoanions nitrate (NO3−) and nitrite (NO2−), as well as nitrous oxide (N2O) and nitric oxide (NO) were all shown to react with stoichiometric amounts of SmI2 in THF for the complete denitrification to N2.
