In comparison to amidinates and guanidinates, the coordination chemistry of triazenides is far less explored. Most of the reported metal triazenides feature the 1,3diphenyltriazenide ligand with no volatility data. Until our recent work, only a few examples of 1,3-dialkyltriazendies had been produced whilst none had been used in an ALD process. The lack of research on 1,3-dialkyltriazenides is unknown, but most likely stems from the assumption that these compounds are explosive due to their resemblance to organic azides (Figure ). Making such presumptions is misguided as these two catenated nitrogen compounds differ in their structure and bonding, and most likely decomposition pathways. From the first series of 1,3-dimethyltriazenides reported, only one titanium-magnesium chloride triazenide side product showed "explosive tendencies". Although the decomposition pathway of metal triazenides has not been studied, a comprehensive review states that "triazenides are stable entities, especially when bound to a transition metal atom". Our experiences reflect the latter statement as we have not observed any concerning behaviour from these compounds when synthesising, scratching and heating to high temperatures for long periods of time (e.g., sublimator, decomposition studies, and ALD precursor source). Nevertheless, it is ensured that the C/N ratio is kept at >1:1, standard operational procedures are in place and all safety equipment such as blast shields, face shields, thermal gloves is being used when heating these compounds.
