Monitoring the carburization of molybdenum bimetallic nitrides and oxynitrides with CH4/H2/Ar mixtures: identification of a new carbonitride.

2008

A new carbonitride Ni2Mo3(CxNy) has been synthesized by temperature-programmed carburization of the Ni2Mo3N precursor with a CH4/H2/Ar gas mixture at 923 K. This compound has been characterized by X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, Auger electron spectroscopy, laser Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and field-emission scanning electron microscopy. Ni2Mo3(CxNy) crystallizes in the cubic space group P4(1)32, with a lattice parameter of a=6.64575(3) A, corresponding to the unusual filled beta-Mn structure. Its formation occurs by partial substitution of N by C via a topotactic and pseudomorphic reaction and its stability in air is higher that of Ni2Mo3N. A two-phase mixture wi…

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of an oxalato-bridged Re(IV)Mo(VI) heterobimetallic complex.

2010

The Re(IV)-Mo(VI) compound of formula (PPh(4))(2)[ReCl(4)(μ-ox)MoO(2)Cl(2)] (1) constitutes the first example of a heterodinuclear oxalato-bridged complex in the coordination chemistry of molybdenum.

Lactate complexes of molybdenum(VI)

1983

Spectrophotometric and cryoscopic studies of the molybdenum(VI)-lactic acid (C3O3H6) system show the existence of three different oxoanion complexes in aqueous solution which have been isolated as [Co(en)3]3+ salts. These are one molybdodilactate {[MoO2(C3O3H42]2−} and two dinuclear 1/1 species: [Mo2O5(C3O3H4)2(H2O)2]2− and [Mo2O3(OH)3-(C3O3H4)2]−. The pH of the medium is the main variable, controlling the formation equilibria which are similar to those previously described for other α-hydroxy-acid ligands.

Synthesis and characterization of molybdenum(VI)-dioxo complexes containing both coordinated thiolate and carboxylate groups. Reactions with their ow…

1998

Abstract The synthesis, characterization and spectroscopic properties of a group of Mo(VI) complexes having thiocarboxylate ligands of type [MoVIO2(O2CC(S)MePh-X)2]2 have been reported (X = H, p-Me, p-Cl). The peak potential for the Mo(VI) reduction increasing according to the electron-donor ability of X (Me > H > Cl). Reaction of these Mo(VI) complexes with their own free ligands has been studied by ESR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, yielding the monomeric [MoVO(O2CC(S)MePh-X)2]− as unique complex products. The kinetic study of this oxidation reaction has also been investigated.

Oxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes with aminoalcohol bis(phenolate) [O,N,O,O′] ligands: Synthesis and catalytic studies

2012

Abstract Oxidomolybdenum(VI) complex [MoOCl(Ln)] with a tetradentate O3N-type aminoalcohol bis(phenol) was prepared as two separable isomers. These complexes can catalyse the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene and sulphoxidation of tolyl methyl sulphide as well as the oxotransfer reaction between PPh3 and DMSO.

Molybdenum Clusters on a TiO2(110) Substrate Studied by Density Functional Theory.

2009

International audience; A theoretical study on molybdenum clusters adsorbed on a rutile TiO2(110) substrate is reported. Using density functional theory, equilibrium geometries, atomic charges, and total energies have been calculated for clusters containing up to five Mo atoms. Isolated Mo adatoms are strongly oxidized and repel each other. The Mo oxidation state is considerably lowered as soon as the first short Mo−Mo bond is formed. The relative stability of different cluster geometries can be understood from the competition between Mo−Mo and Mo−O bonding. Some low-energy structures for two and three Mo atoms involve large displacements of a substrate oxygen atom. The most stable five-ato…

2003

International audience; The zinc reduction of Cp*2Mo2O5 in a MeOH–H2O mixture in the presence of acetic acid affords the diamagnetic dinuclear compound [Cp*MoO(O2CCH3)]2. An X-ray structural investigation reveals a novel dioxo- and diacetato-bridged structure, with a relatively strong metal–metal bond [2.5524(3) Å]. The compound exhibits a reversible one-electron oxidation process in the cyclic voltammogram. A comparison with other related structures reveals the effect of the electric charge on the mononuclear or dinuclear structural choice.Zinc reduction of Cp*2Mo2O5 in water–methanol in the presence of acetic acid affords compound Cp*2Mo2O2(O2CCH3)2, whose dinuclar tetrabridged structure …

2014

Diferrocenyl/diferrocenium substituted dioxido molybdenum(VI) complexes [Fe2MoO2] 2(Fc)/[2(FC)]²⁺ mimic the catalytic active site including the redox subunits as well as the catalytic function of bacterial sulphite oxidases.

A chiral diamine bis-phenolate complex of dioxomolybdenum(VI)

2009

Abstract A new dioxomolybdenum(VI) complex with a chiral tetradentate ligand is reported. The tripodal ligand containing two nitrogen atoms and two phenolic oxygen atoms was synthesized starting from a chiral diamine precursor. Further reaction with [MoO2(acac)2] yielded a monomeric molybdenum complex as a bright yellow solid. The structures of the molybdenum complex and the free diamine bis-phenol ligand were determined by X-ray diffraction.
