Abstract

Title full: Synthesis and structural characterization of a diphenylcarbazone complex of molybdenum(VI), (n-Bu4N)[MoO2(C6H5NNC(O)NNC 6H5)(C6 H5NNC(O)NHNC6H5)], A species containing organohydrazido(2-) and organohydrazido(1-) ligands and functioning as a synthetic precursor in the preparation of the tetranuclear diazenido complex, (n-Bu4N)2[Mo4O6(OCH 3)2(OC6H4NH)2 (NNC6H5)4]. Reaction of α-(Bu4N)4[Mo8O26] with diphenylcarbazone in CH2Cl2 yields the hydrazido(1-), hydrazido(2-) species (Bu4N)[MoO2(C6H5NNCONHNC 6H5)(C6H5 NNCONNC6H5)] (I). Treatment of (I) with phenylhydrazine in MeOH yields the unexpected product, (Bu4N)2[Mo4O6(OMe)2 (OC6H4NH)2(NNC6H 5)4] (II), a tetranuclear polyoxomolybdate with the [Mo2(OMe)2(NNC6H5)4 ] 2+ core. Crystal Data: (I), space group P21/n, a = 11.026(2), b = 21.600(3), c = 18.851(3) Å, β = 98.04(1)°; (II), space group P21/a, a = 24.675(4), b = 19.937(4), c = 17.295(3) Å, β = 112.62(1)°.
