                    Abstract
The unprecedented tris(imido) complex of molybdenum, [Li(THF)4][Mo(NAr)3Cl](Ar = C6H3Pri2-2,6), is the kinetic product of the reaction between [Mo(NAr)2Cl2(THF)2] and 2 equiv. of LiNHAr in THF; [Li(THF)4][Mo(NAr)3Cl] and byproduct H2NAr react further to form the thermodynamic product [Mo(NAr)2(NHAr)2].
