Abstract

Presence of the hydrogen bonding near a metal center can influence the properties of the complex. Here, we describe changes in redox and spectral properties in discrete dioxo- molybdenum centers coordinated by a single thiolato ligand that can support an intra-ligand hydrogen bond. We have utilized thiophenolato ligands that can harbor hydrogen bonding between the thiophenolato sulfur with an amide functionality creating either a five-or a six- ...
