Popis: A monooxomolybdenum(IV) complex containing two intramolecular NH···S hydrogen bonds, (NEt(4))(2)[Mo(IV)O(1,2-S(2)-3-t-BuNHCOC(6)H(3))(2)], was synthesized. The trans isomer was crystallized as the major product, and the molecular structure was determined by X-ray analysis. The trans isomer was isomerized by heating in solution to give a 1:1 mixture of trans and cis isomers. Oxidation of these isomers by Me(3)NO afforded (NEt(4))(2)[Mo(VI)O(2)(1,2-S(2)-3-t-BuNHCOC(6)H(3))(2)]. (1)H NMR analysis revealed that the dioxomolybdenum(VI) complex existed as a single isomer where both oxo ligands were trans to each of the two hydrogen-bonded thiolate ligands. The Mo(VI)═O bond was effectively stabilized by the NH···S hydrogen bond via trans influence, which was determined using resonance Raman spectroscopy. These results were supported by preliminary density functional theory calculations.
