Sažetak
The reaction of [MoO2(acac)2] with hydrochloric salts of pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone ligands, H2L1–3·HCl, in dry methanol or acetonitrile resulted in the formation of the mononuclear complex [MoO2(HL1)(CH3OH)]Cl·1.5CH3OH (1a) or polynuclear complexes [{; ; ; ; MoO2(HL1–3)}; ; ; ; Cl]n (1–3) containing a different substituent on the nitrogen atom of the N-thioureide fragment: Ph (1 and 1a), Me (2) or H (3). New dinuclear molybdenum(V) complexes [Mo2O3(HL1–3)2]Cl2 (4–6) were obtained by oxygen atom abstraction from 1–3 with triphenylphosphine. All compounds were characterized by chemical analysis, IR spectroscopy, one- and two-dimensional NMR methods, TGA and in selected cases by DSC measurements. In addition, the crystal and molecular structure of 1a was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. All molybdenum(VI) species were used as (pre)catalysts for olefin epoxidation under solvent-free conditions with a 0.05% Mo loading versus olefin.
