Reactivity between molybdenum and TiO2(110) surfaces: evidence of a sub-monolayer mode and a multilayer mode
2005
Small amounts of molybdenum (from 0.03 to 1.3 eqML) were deposited on non-stoichiometric TiO 2 (1 1 0) surface. The deposits were investigated by means of LEED and X-ray/UV photoemission using synchrotron radiation. For the smallest coverage (<0.2 eqML), deposition leads to oxidation of molybdenum into species close to Mo 4+ .In such a case, states appearing in TiO 2 band gap are mainly due to reduced titanium. For higher coverages, metallic behaviour of molybdenum is observed. This phenomenon was explained, thanks to first principle calculations, as a decrease of the Mo-O interactions for the benefit of the Mo-Mo interactions as the surface molybdenum atom density increases.
Oxidomolybdenum(IV), ‐(V), ‐(VI) Complexes with Relevance to Molybdenum Enzymes: Oxygen Atom Transfer, Redox Chemistry and EPR Spectroscopy
2010
The cis-dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complex Mo(NN′)2O2 (1) [(NN′) = N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-pyrrolatocarbaldimine] transfers one oxygen atom to phosphanes PMenPh3–n (n = 0–3) to give quantitatively the respective phosphane oxides OPMenPh3–n (OAT, oxygen atom transfer). The kinetics of these OAT reactions has been investigated spectrophotometrically. When offering excess PMenPh3–n (n = 1–3), oxido(phoshane)molybdenum(IV) complexes Mo(NN′)2O(PMenPh3–n) 5a–5c are isolated and characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C, 31P, 15N), IR spectroscopy, UV/Vis spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The redox chemistry of the molybdenum(IV) complexes 5a–5c and of molybdenum(VI) complex 1 has been pr…
Treatment of scalar-relativistic effects on nuclear magnetic shieldings using a spin-free exact-two-component approach.
2013
A cost-effective treatment of scalar-relativistic effects on nuclear magnetic shieldings based on the spin-free exact-two-component theory in its one-electron variant (SFX2C-1e) is presented. The SFX2C-1e scheme gains its computational efficiency, in comparison to the four-component approach, from a focus on spin-free contributions and from the elimination of the small component. For the calculation of nuclear magnetic shieldings, the separation of spin-free and spin-dependent terms in the parent four-component theory is carried out here for the matrix representation of the Dirac equation in terms of a restricted-magnetically balanced gauge-including atomic orbital basis. The resulting spin…
Modes of complexation of non-substituted and substituted tetraazamacrocycles with Group 6 metal carbonyls. X-ray structure of [(permethylcyclam)Mo(CO…
1995
Abstract Reactions of complexation of tetraazamacrocycles L with Group 6 metal carbonyls [M(CO)6](M = Cr, Mo, or W) lead to [LM(CO)4], [LM(CO)3] or [LM(CO)2] entities, depending both on the size of the macrocycle and on the metal M. The structure of one representative complex [(permethylcyclam)Mo(CO)4] has been determined by X-ray diffraction (permethylcyclam: 1,4,8,11-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane).
Initial Radical Cation Pathway in the Mo2Cl10-Mediated Dehydrogenative Arene Coupling
2015
Experimental (EPR) and theoretical (DFT) evidence is provided for radical cation formation as initial step in the Mo2Cl10-mediated dehydrogenative arene coupling. The initial electron transfer from methoxyarenes to molybdenum proceeds via an inner sphere mechanism.
Aminobis(phenolate)s of imidomolybdenum(VI) and -tungsten(VI)
2009
Abstract The reactions of trans-[MoO(ONOMe)Cl2] 1 (ONOMe = methylamino-N,N-bis(2-methylene-4,6-dimethylphenolate) dianion) and trans-[MoO(ONOtBu)Cl2] 2 (ONOtBu = methylamino-N,N-bis(2-methylene-4-methyl-6-tert-butylphenolate) dianion) with PhNCO afforded new imido molybdenum complexes trans-[Mo(NPh)(ONOMe)Cl2] 3 and trans-[Mo(NPh)(ONOtBu)Cl2] 4, respectively. As analogous oxotungsten starting materials did not show similar reactivity, corresponding imido tungsten complexes were prepared by the reaction between [W(NPh)Cl4] with aminobis(phenol)s. These reactions yielded cis- and trans-isomers of dichloro complexes [W(NPh)(ONOMe)Cl2] 5 and [W(NPh)(ONOtBu)Cl2] 6, respectively. The molecular st…
Chelated η5-cyclopentadienyl-η-ethyl complexes of molybdenum and tungsten; molecular structure of W(η5-C5H4CH2-η-CH2)(CO)3
2000
Abstract Molybdenum and tungsten complexes M(η5-C5H4CH2-η-CH2)(CO)3 (M=Mo, W) containing the bidentate ethyl-functionalized cyclopentadienyl ligand C5H4CH2CH2 have been synthesized by the reaction of spiro[2.4]hepta-4,6-diene with M(CO)3L3 (M=Mo; L3=1,3,5-C6H3Me3; M=W; L=NCMe). Reaction of the more stable tungsten complex with C6H5ICl2 and HBF4 gave complexes of the type W(η5-C5H4CH2CH2Cl)(CO)3Cl, W(η5-C5H4CH2CH3)(CO)3Cl and W(η5-C5H4CH2CH3)(CO)3(FBF3), respectively. The crystal structure of the tungsten tricarbonyl complex W(η5-C5H4CH2-η-CH2)(CO)3 has been determined by X-ray crystal diffraction on a single crystal and shows a four-legged piano stool structure.
MoSi2 laser cladding—A new experimental procedure: double-sided injection of MoSi2 and ZrO2
2003
International audience; In the last decade, development of low density advanced material systems for service at temperatures up to 1300 °C was one of the goals of many researches. This kind of material should mainly have moderate fracture toughness and should exhibit oxidation resistant behaviour at low and intermediate temperature. One of the most studied materials continues to be the intermetallic compound MoSi2. The molybdenum disilicide has been considered as an attractive candidate due to its melting point (2030 °C) and excellent oxidation resistance at high temperatures. The main problem associated with the MoSi2 layer synthesized using laser beam is the layer fragility. To avoid this…
Efficacy and safety of cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate substitution in severe molybdenum cofactor deficiency type A: a prospective cohort study.
2015
Summary Background Molybdenum cofactor deficiency (MoCD) is characterised by early, rapidly progressive postnatal encephalopathy and intractable seizures, leading to severe disability and early death. Previous treatment attempts have been unsuccessful. After a pioneering single treatment we now report the outcome of the complete first cohort of patients receiving substitution treatment with cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate (cPMP), a biosynthetic precursor of the cofactor. Methods In this observational prospective cohort study, newborn babies with clinical and biochemical evidence of MoCD were admitted to a compassionate-use programme at the request of their treating physicians. Intravenous…
