Abstract

An octahedral cluster complex [Mo6S8(NO)(PEt3)5] 2 and a dodecanuclear cluster complex [Mo12S16(PEt3)10] have been obtained by the reaction of [Mo6S8(PEt3)6] with NOBF4. A crystallographic study of 2 shows a tetragonal distortion of the cluster core where the nitrosyl-co-ordinated molybdenum atom projects outward. Molecular orbital calculations on 2 indicate that the distortion of the cluster core enhances the π-back donation to the nitrosyl ligand.
