Electronic Structure and Donor Ability of an Unsaturated Triphosphorus-Bridged Dimolybdenum Complex.

ABSTRACT: The triphosphorus complex [Mo₂Cp₂(μ-η³:η³-P₃)(μ-P^tBu₂)] was prepared in 83% yield by reacting the methyl complex [Mo₂Cp₂(μ-κ¹:η²-CH₃)(μ-P^tBu₂)(μ-CO)] with P₄ at 333 K, a process also giving small amounts of the methyldiphosphenyl complex [Mo₂Cp₂(μ-η²:η²-P₂Me)(μ-P^tBu₂)(CO)₂]. The latter could be better prepared by first reacting the anionic complex Na[Mo₂Cp₂(μ-P^tBu₂)(μ-CO)₂] with P₄ to give the diphosphorus derivative Na[Mo₂Cp₂(
