The magnetic susceptibility of the cluster compounds Mo6Se8 and Mo6Te8 has been measured at temperatures between 82 and 330 K, using a Faraday balance. The paramagnetic and diamagnetic components of the susceptibility have been analyzed. The Pauli component was evaluated using the density of states at the Fermi level obtained by band structure calculations, while the core component was evaluate...

The Mn2+ and Mo6+ based metal-mercaptoacetate (metal-MA) hybrids were prepared by a simple acid–base titration method. metal-MA analysed FT-IR spectroscopy, UV–visible SEM, particle size analyser (PSA), XRD EDX. investigated to assess their catalytic activity for ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone (CL) in the absence an initiator at 160 °C N2 atmosphere varying catalyst concent...

The mononuclear title complex, [Mo(C9H9NO2)O2(H2O)], contains an Mo(VI) atom in a distorted octa-hedral coordination sphere defined by an Mo=O and an Mo-(OH2) bond to the axial ligands and two Mo-O bonds to phenolate and alcoholate O atoms, another Mo=O bond and one Mo-N bond to the imino N atom in the equatorial plane. The five-membered metalla-ring shows an envelope conformation. In the cryst...

Acetophenone 2’,4’-dihydroxy semicarbazone (A24DHS) as a photometric reagent for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of Molybdenum (VI) is presented in this paper. The reagent A24DHS gave instantaneous and stable yellow colour with Molybdenum (VI) in the pH range 1.6 to 2.4. The system obeys Beer’s law in the concentration range of 1.0 μg/mL to 8.0 μg/mL at 370 nm. The Limit of Dete...

A sterically demanding molybdenum(VI) dioxo complex was found to catalytically activate molecular oxygen and to transfer its oxygen atoms to phosphines. Intermediate peroxo as well as reduced mono-oxo complexes were isolated and fully characterized. Monomeric Mo(IV) monooxo species proved to be of an unusual nature with the coordinated phosphine trans to the oxo group. The reduced molybdenum ce...

Mo/N co-doped TiO2 nanotube array films were obtained by a combination of magnetron sputtering and anodization. The influences doping concentration morphology on the structure, morphology, elemental composition, light-absorption capacity, optoelectronic properties nanotubes studied. findings revealed that Mo was primarily incorporated into lattice in Mo6+ valence state, while N mainly embedded ...

Photocatalytic nitrogen reduction for the green synthesis of ammonia at ambient conditions has been slowed by narrow light harvesting range, low activity and high charge recombination photocatalysts. Plasmonic semiconducting nanomaterials are becoming promising candidates photofixation because broad absorption spectrum, rich defects hot carriers. In present study, plasmonic SrMoO4 is developed ...

A novel dioxidomolybdenum complex, [MoO(2)L], derived from the tridentate aroylhydrazone 2-amino-N'-(2-hydroxy-3-methylbenzylidene)benzohydrazide (H(2)L), has been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, (1)H NMR, and single crystal structural X-ray diffraction. The complex has distorted square pyramidal structure in which the aroylhydrazone ligand behaves as a binegative donor...

In the title co-crystal, [Mo(C(14)H(9)ClN(2)O(4))O(2)(CH(3)OH)]·C(10)H(8)N(2), the deprotonated Schiff base O,N,O'-chelates to the Mo(VI) atom, the three atoms involved in chelation comprising the fac sites of the octa-hedron surrounding the methanol-coordinated metal atom. The methanol mol-ecule forms an O-H⋯N hydrogen bond to an N atom of the 4,4'-bipyridine solvent mol-ecule; the hy-droxy gr...
