AI Article Synopsis

  • The compound features a symmetrical structure made up of two half-molecules that align at a center of symmetry.
  • Thiol-ate groups connect the two molybdenum (Mo) atoms, giving the compound a quasi-octahedral geometry.
  • Within this octahedral arrangement, the two sulfur (S) atoms are positioned in a cis configuration.

Article Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Mo(2)(C(5)H(5))(2)(C(7)H(7)S)(2)(CO)(2)], consists of two half-mol-ecules, each molecule lying on a centre of symmetry. The thiol-ate groups function as bridges between the Mo(II) atoms, which adopt a quasi-octa-hedral geometry. In the octa-hedral environment the two ligating S atoms are in a cis arrangement.
