MoAsN₃ is a molybdenum-based ternary nitride compound combining molybdenum, arsenic, and nitrogen in a defined stoichiometric ratio. This is a research-phase material studied primarily for its potential electronic and catalytic properties, belonging to the family of transition metal pnictide nitrides that are being explored as alternatives to precious metals in catalysis and as functional materials in advanced electronics. The compound's notable potential lies in electrochemical applications—particularly hydrogen evolution catalysis and electrocatalytic water splitting—where Mo-based nitrides have demonstrated activity competitive with platinum while offering cost and abundance advantages.
