The fluxional behaviour of some nitrosyl bis(cyclopentadienyl) molybdenum sulphur complexes

Abstract
The 1H n.m.r. spectra of [Mo(C5H5)2(NO)(S2CNMe2)], (I), and of [Ph4P][Mo(C5H5)2(NO){S2C2-(CN)2}], (II), have been studied over the temperature range –80 to +130°: the limiting low-temperature spectra are consistent with the structure [Mo(h5-C5H5)(h1-C5H5)(NO)–(S–S)](S–S = sulphur ligand); at intermediate temperatures, the monohapto-ring is fluxional, and at high temperatures the rings in (I) undergo site exchange, and the methyl groups become equivalent.
