Abstract
Twelve compounds containing two quadruply bonded Mo-2(DAniF)(3) (DAniF = N, N'-di-p-anisylformamidinate) units linked by dicarboxylate anions have been prepared in high purity and good yields. All of these compounds have been characterized by crystallography and NMR. The dinuclear pairs display elect rochemical behavior which is controlled by the nature of the bridging dicar boxylate group. As described by the Linkers, the compounds are oxalate, 1; acetylene dicarboxylate, 2; fumarate, 3; tetrafluorophthalate, 4; carborane dicarboxylate, 5; ferrocene dicarboxylate, 6; malonate, 7; succinate, 8; p ropane-1,3-dicarboxylate, 9; tetrafluorosuccinate, 10; bicyclo[1.1.1] penta ne-1,3-dicarboxylate, 11; and trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate, 12.
