Ligands which contain three facially arranged amine, carboxylate, and/or heterocyclic nitrogen functional groups form stable complexes with the MoO3 core at pH ~6. 13C and 17O NMR spectra reveal an interesting variety of compositions, inter- and intramolecular labilities, and spatial arrangements of ligand framework and donor atoms for these complexes. Ligands which contain a hydroxyl functional group result in the formation of Mo2O52+ dimers. The hydroxyl proton is lost upon coordination, and the strong trans influence of the coordinated alkoxy group weakens the opposing Mo=O bond and causes formation of a μ-oxo-bridged Mo2O52+ core. A ranking of trans-influencing ability of common ligand groups is derived from crystal structure data and is shown to be a controlling factor in the structure and composition of oxomolybdenum(VI) complexes. Oxygen-17 NMR chemical shifts of MoO3-ligand complexes are much more sensitive to trans influences than crystal structure distance measurements. The 17O chemical shifts of oxomolybdenum(VI) complexes and polyanions reported in the literature reveal a smooth, nonlinear relation to Mo-O bond length. 95Mo NMR chemical shifts of MoO3-ligand complexes are identical within experimental error, and line widths show no relation to complex size.
