A possible carbon dioxide complex of molybdenum and its rearrangement product di-µ-carbonato-bis{carbonyltris(dimethylphenylphosphine)molybdenum}: X-ray crystal structure

Abstract
Carbon dioxide reacts with cis-[Mo(N2)2(PMe2Ph)4] to form a complex [Mo(CO2)2(PMe2Ph)4] which changes spontaneously in solution into a carbonato-bridged complex, [(PMe2Ph)3(CO)Mo(CO3)2Mo(CO)(PMe2Ph)3], the structure of which has been determined; the planar carbonate ions bridge in an unusual manner, each being bidentate to one molybdenum atom and monodentate to the other.
