A New Class of Sulfido/Oxo(dithiolene)−Molybdenum(IV) Complexes Derived from Sulfido/Oxo-Bis(tetrasulfido)molybdenum(IV) Anions

Abstract: Mono(dithiolene)sulfidomolybdenum(IV) complexes, [MoS(S4)(bdt)](2-) (2) and [MoS(S4)(bdtCl2)](2-) (3) (1,2-benzenedithiolate = bdt, 3,6-dichloro-1,2-benzenedithiolate = bdtCl2), were prepared by the substitution reaction of a tetrasulfido ligand in known [MoS(S4)2](2-) (1) with the corresponding dithiol. Complexes 2 and 3 were irreversibly oxidized to give bis(mu-sulfido) dimolybdenum(V) species, {[MoS(bdt)]2(mu-S)2}(2-) (4) and {[MoS(bdtCl2)]2(mu-S)2}(2-) (5), in aerobic acetonitrile. Mono(dithiolene)oxomolyb… Show more

“…Taken together, these observations indicate that each Mo1 atom possesses a distorted square pyramidal geometry as commonly found in the Mo(IV) complexes, [MoS(didentate ligand) 2 ] 2− , (bidentate ligand = S 4 , 23 CS 4 , 31 L C4H8 , 18 S 2 C 2 Me 2 32 ), [MoS(bdt)(S 4 )] 2− , 33 and [MoS(bdtCl 2 )(S 4 )] 2− . 33 The Mo1 atom of MoSL COOMe also adopts a similar distorted square pyramidal geometry as MoSL Ph , and this is reflected by the S5-Mo1-S (L COOMe ) and S1-Mo1-S3 and S2-Mo1-S4 bond angles. With respect to the dimensions of L Ph and L COOMe , the four C-S bond lengths of L Ph (1.766(3) – 1.789(3) Å) and the three C-S bonds (1.748(6) – 1.774(4) Å), except for the C1-S1 bond (1.735(5) Å) of L COOMe , are in the typical range of C-S single bonds.…”

“…(g) A synthetic Mo‐S compound with similar coordination environment, but coordinated by two polysulfide rings (George et al., ; Mcalpine et al., ). (h) Cuboid Fe‐Mo‐S cluster resembling the proposed structure of the FeMo cofactor in nitrogenase (Sugimoto et al., ). (i) Linear complex consisting of a 2 Fe‐2Mo cluster coordinated to MoS 4 2− , thought relevant for FeS assisted Mo removal in nature (Cramer et al., ; Helz et al., ; Venters et al., )…”

“…This complex was synthesized using the same procedure as 1 , 14 except (Et 4 N) 2 [MoO(S 4 )(bdtCl 2 )] (224 mg, 0.316 mmol) was used instead of (Et 4 N) 2 [MoO(S 4 )(bdt)]. Yield: 166 mg (67%).…”

“…11-13 Recently, we reported a Mo IV O complex which possesses both an ene–1,2–dithiolate ligand and an aromatic dithiolene ligand, (Et 4 N) 2 [Mo IV O(S 2 C 2 (CO 2 Me) 2 )(bdt)] ( 1 ) (Chart 1, S 2 C 2 (CO 2 Me) 2 = 1,2–dicarbomethoxyethylene–1,2– ditholate, bdt = 1,2–benzenedithiolate). 14 In contrast, Mo VI complexes with one or two ene–1,2–dithiolate ligands have been considered to be unstable for isolation as a result of autoredox reactions that may be facilitated by π–delocalization between the metal and ene–1,2–dithiolate ligands. 12, 15-18 Isolated Mo VI [Mo VI O 2 (ene-1,2-dithiolate) 2 ] 2− complexes are limited to [MoO 2 (mnt) 2 ] 2− (mnt = dicyanoethylene–1,2–dithiolate), 19 which is believed to be stabilized by the very strong electron withdrawing nature of the CN substituents.…”
