Abstract

Treatment of MoCl3(THF)(3) with 3 equiv, of LiSC(6)H(3)Mes(2)-2 2,6 (Mes = C6H2Me3-2,4,6) (Lidmpt) affords the monomeric molybdenum trithiolate Mo(eta(7)-dmpt)(eta(1)-dmpt)(2), 1, which is spectroscopically and structurally characterized; the MoS3 array has distorted trigonal pyramidal geometry which is caused by strong pi-interactions between molybdenum and an ortho-mesityl group from one of the thiolate substituents.
