The reaction of [Mo(η-C5Me5)Cl4] with the ortho-, meta-, or para-iodo-functionalized anilines 2-IC6H4NH2, 3-IC6H4NH2, 4-IC6H4NH2 yields imido or amine products of the type [Mo(η-C5Me5)Cl2(IC6H4N)] (2-I, 1, 3-I, 3, 4-I, 5) or [Mo(η-C5Me5)Cl4(IC6H4NH2)] (3-I, 2, 4-I, 4), respectively, depending on the reaction stoichiometry/conditions; we were unable to isolate an amine complex of the 2-I derivative. The reaction of [Mo(η-C5Me5)Cl4] with one equivalent of 2-I,4-FC6H3NH2 in the presence of Et3N afforded [Mo(η-C5Me5)Cl2(2-I,4-FC6H3N)]·MeCN (6·MeCN), which, upon exposure to air, afforded the Mo(VI) imido complex [Mo(η-C5Me5)Cl3(2-I,4-FC6H3N)] (7). For comparative studies, the structure of the aniline (C6H5NH2)-derived complex [Mo(η-C5Me5)Cl2(2-C6H3N)] (8) has also been prepared. The molecular structures of 1–8 have been determined and reveal packing in the form of zig-zag chains or ladders. The complexes catalyze, in the presence of benzyl alcohol under N2, the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone affording relatively low molecular weight products. The MALDI-ToF spectra indicate that a number of polymer series bearing a variety of end groups are formed. Conducting the ROPs as melts or under air results in the isolation of higher molecular weight products, again bearing a variety of end groups. Kinetic studies reveal the aniline-derived imido complex 8 performs best, whilst a meta-iodo substituent and a Mo(V) centre are also found to be beneficial. The structures of the side products 2-IC6H4NH3Cl and 3-IC6H4NH3Cl are also reported.

Anatase TiO2 crystals with different structures were synthesized. Experiments on the effect of polyethylene glycol show that the low molecular weight PEG (PEG400) can accelerate crystal differentiation and relieve the agglomeration of crystals.
