Abstract
The complex [NH4](2)[(WO2)-O-VI{O2CC(S)Ph(2)}(2)] is the first example of a non-dithiolene tungsten complex capable of oxidising benzoin to benzil in methanol; the reduced complex product formed, presumably a m onomeric (WO)-O-IV species, was reoxidised with nitrate ions, regenera ting the starting (WO2)-O-VI complex which then acts as a true homogen eous catalyst.
