Molybdenum and Tungsten Nitrosyl Complexes with Dithiocarbamate Ligands
Molybdenum and tungsten nitrosyl complexes with dithiocarbamato ligands have been prepared and characterized by analysis, and 1H n.m.r, and infrared studies. The molybdenum complexes are formulated as seven-coordinate species [Mo(NCO)L(S2CNEt2)2NO]- (L = Cl-, N3-, NCS-),{Mo(NCO)(S2CNEt2)2NO}2N2H4 and [Mo(NCO)B(S2CNEt2)2NO](B = NH3, pyridine). Likely stereochemistries are discussed. New tungsten complexes have been prepared by photochemical reactions of cis-[W(S2CNEt2)2(NO)2] to give [WL2(S2CNEt2)2NO]-, [WL(S2CNEt2)2(Me2SO)NO](L = NCO-, N3-, NCS-) and [W(NCO)(S2CNEt2)2(MeCONMe2)NO]. Assignments for the nitrosyl infrared bands in cis-[MO(S2CNEt2)2(NO)2] and [Mo(NCO)(S,CNEt2)2(Me2SO)NO] havebeen made by using 15NO labelled ligands.
