Abstract
Reduction of [Mo{HB(3,5-Me2C3HN2)3}(NO)I2], A, is achieved electrochemically intetrahydrofuran (Pt or C electrodes), and in basic solvents chemically, giving paramagnetic A– from which I– dissociates affording paramagnetic [Mo{HB(Me2C3NH2)3}(NO)I]; these reduction products are important intermediates in the formation of [Mo{HB(Me2C3HN2)3}(NO)IQ], where Q = OR, NHR, NHNR1R2, and SR, from A and ROH, RNH2 R1R2NNH2, and RSH.Keywords
