Metal dithiolene complexes are attractive for the development of novel
materials with extended electronic properties. The preparation of Cp
Mo(dmit)(2)(-) and its investigation by cyclic voltammetry, antiferrom
agnetic resonance, and electron paramagnetic resonance are described.
Complexes of this class, i.e., with heteroatom substitution on the dmi
t dithiolene ligand, are shown to exhibit conformational flexibility d
irectly related to the orbital occupancy.
