The preparation of the series of anionic, paramagnetic, hydrido complexes (R = Et, X = Cl or Br; R = Bu, X = Cl; R3=Me2Ph, X=Br) from the reactions of anhydrous HX with in tetrahydrofuran is described.The structure of one example, ., has been determined by X-ray crystallography.The co-ordination geometry of the anion is best described as a distorted pentagonal bipyramid, with apical chloro-groups ax)av 2.423(10) Angstroem>.The hydride was located in the structure and is displaced 0.31 Angstroem out of the equatorial plane towards one of the axial sites.The remaining ligands in the equatorial positions have bond lengths (Mo-Cleq)av 2.485(1) and (Mo-P)av 2.511(5) Angstroem.

The new bis(dithiolate) complexes Mo(1,2-S2-4-R-C6H3)2(PMePh2)2, R = H, Me, are readily synthesized from three different types of starting materials: trans-Mo(N2)2(PMePh2)4, MoCl4(PMePh2)2, and MoOCl2(PMePh2)3.The 31P NMR spectra of the dithiolate complexes at low temperature are consistent with a cis stereochemistry of the PMePh2 ligands and isomerism with respect to inversion at sulfur and relative positioning of the methyl groups on the chelating 1,2-S2-4Me-C6H3 ligands.The singlet in the 31P NMR spectrum at room temperature arises from rapid interconversion of these isomers.Substitution of one or two of the PMePh2 ligands in the dithiolate complexes proceeds under mild conditions to give the complexes Mo(S2C6H4)2(CO)(PMePh2), Mo(S2C6H4)2(CN-t-Bu)(PMePh2), Mo(S2C6H3Me)2(dppe), Mo(S2C6H4)2(depe), Mo(S2C6H4)2(PMe3), Mo(S2C6H4)2(PMePh2)(P(OMe)3), and Mo(S2C6H4)2(P(OMe)3)2.The 31P and 13C NMR spectroscopy of these bis(dithiolate) complexes suggest that they have monodentate ligands cis disposed.A reversible equilibrium exists between Mo(S2C6H4)2(PMePh2)2 and Mo(S2C6H4)2(CO)(PMePh2) in the presence of carbon monoxide in solution.Isolation of Mo(S2C6H4)2(CO)(PMePh2) is facilitated by use of CH3I as a phosphine sponge reagent.If the sulfur ligands are viewed as dianions, then this is the first thermally stable carbonyl complex of molybdenum(IV).
