Abstract: 

Centered by a nitride ion: The oxidation of ytterbium with 2,2′‐dipyridylamine in liquid ammonia at low temperatures leads to the novel compound [Yb3N(dpa)6][Yb(dpa)3], which is unique among homoleptic dipyridylamides of the rare‐earth metals. The complete deprotonation of NH3 provides the first molecular nitride of a rare‐earth metal with a Yb3N unit (see picture; C blue, N green, Yb silver).
