Abstract
The octahedral nitrosyl complexes [MoCl(NO)(3-PhCH=CHCOpy)(Tp(Me,Me))] and [MoCl(NO){3,5-(MeCO)(2)py}(Tp(Me,Me))] (py = pyridyl) were synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. Both complexes underwent reduction and oxi dation giving anionic and cationic species, respectively. Both complexes we re also characterized by X-ray crystallography that confirmed their essenti al octahedral geometry and showed that the Mo-NO bond distance reflected th e acceptor ability of the pyridine ligands.
