The Molybdenum-Molybdenum Triple Bond. 7.1 Bis(1,3-Di-p-Tolyltriazenido)Tetrakis(Dimethylamido)Dimolybdenum.

Abstract

Mo2(NMe2)(6) reacts in hydrocarbon solvents with 1,3-di-p-tolyltriazine, C7H8NNNHC7H8, to give the title compound, Mo2(NMe2)4(C7H8N3C7H8)2, as a red, crystalline solid. An X-ray study shows that in the solid state each molybdenum atom is coordinated to four nitrogen atoms which lie in a plane; there is an unbridged molybdenum-to-molybdenum triple bond with a Mo-Mo distance of 2.212(1) angstroms, and the molecule has crystallographically imposed C2 symmetry. Variable temperature 1H nmr spectra recorded at 220 MHz support the view that this form of the molecule is present in solution.
