Abstract
The complexes [Mo2(CO)4(µ-SR)2(η-C5H5)2](R = Me, But, Ph, p-tolyl), which do not contain metal–metal bonds, decarbonylate readily on heating to produce [Mo2(CO)2(µ-SR)2(η-C5H5)2], containing a formal double metal–metal bond; the structures of [Mo2(CO)4(µ-SPh)2(η-C5H5)2] and [Mo2(CO)2(µ-SBut)2(η-C5H5)2] have been established by X-ray diffraction.Keywords
