ArPMI-Mo(CO)4 complexes (PMI = pyridine monoimine; Ar = Ph, 2,6-di-iso-propylphenyl) were synthesized and their electrochemical properties were probed with cyclic voltammetry and infrared spectroelectrochemistry (IR-SEC). The complexes exhibit a reduction at more positive potentials than the related bipyridine-Mo(CO)4 complex, which is ligand based according to IR-SEC and DFT data. To probe the reaction product in more detail, stoichiometric chemical reduction and subsequent treatment with CO2 resulted in the formation of a new product that is assigned as a ligand-bound carboxylate, [iPr2PhPMI-Mo(CO)3(CO2)]2−, by NMR spectroscopic methods. The CO2 adduct [iPr2PhPMI-Mo(CO)3(CO2)]2− could not be isolated and fully characterized. However, the assignment of the C-C coupling between the CO2 molecule and the PDI ligand was confirmed by X-ray crystallography of one of the decomposition products of [iPr2PhPMI-Mo(CO)3(CO2)]2−.
