Jc. Fettinger et al., LINEAR FACE-SHARING TRIOCTAHEDRAL [MO3I12](3-) BY SPONTANEOUS THF LOSS FROM[MOI4(THF)(2)](-) - STRUCTURE, BONDING AND MAGNETIC-PROPERTIES, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (12), 1995, pp. 1265-1266
Complexes [Mo(3)X(12)](3-) (X = I, Br) assemble by spontaneous thf los
s in noncoordinating solvents from [MoX(4)(thf)(2)](-) and exhibit a l
inear face-shared trioctahedral structure with, at the same time, delo
calized metal-metal bonding and local moment antiferromagnetic exchang
e interactions.
