Abstract

Dimethlsulfoxide and dimethylformamide adducts of bis(mu-sulfido)bis[{O,O-dialkyldithiophosphato} oxomolybdenum(V)] of the type Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P(OR)(2)](2) . L (R=Me, Et and i-Pr; L=Me2SO and Me2NCHO) were prepared by the dropwise addition of a benzene solution of dimethylsulfoxide or dimethylformamide in excess to a 1:2 benzene-n-hexane solution of bis(mu-sulfido)bis[{O,O-dialkyldithiophosphato}oxomolybdenum(V)]. The compounds, Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P(OR)(2)](2) . L, were characterized by elemental analysis, IR. and H-1 and P-31 NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structures of Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P(OEt)(2)](2) . Me2SO, Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P{O(i-Pr)}(2)](2) . Me2SO and Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P{O(i-Pr)}(2)](2) . NC5H5 were determined. Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P(OEt)(2)](2) Me2SO crystallizes in the space group P2(1)/n, with cell parameters a=15.319(3) Angstrom, b=8.750(2) Angstrom, c=20.322(4) Angstrom, beta = 108.55(3)degrees, V=2582.5(9) Angstrom(-3), Z=4, R=0.0277 and R-w=0.0329. Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P{O(i-Pr)}(2)](2) . Me2SO crystallizes in the space group C2/c, with cell parameters a=29.848(6) Angstrom, b=8.566(2) Angstrom, c=12.328(3)Angstrom, beta=110.03(3)degrees, V=2961.2(10)Angstrom(-3), Z=4, R=0.0272 and R-w=0.0299. Mo2O2(Phi-S-2)[S2P{O(i-Pr)}(2)](2) . NC5H5 crystallizes in the space group P2(1)/n, with cell parameters a=9.210(2) Angstrom, b=28.859(6) Angstrom, c=12.421(3) Angstrom, beta=109.01(3)degrees, V=3121.5(11)Angstrom(-3), Z=4, R=0.0643 and R-w=0.1022. If the Mo-Mo interaction is ignored, the immediate environment about one of the Mo atoms in all three compounds is essentially a distorted octahedral with a very long Mo-O or Mo-N bond, while it is square-pyramidal about the other Mo atom. The terminal oxygen atoms are in the syn conformation. The dithiophosphate groups are bidentate in all complexes.
