Synthese und Struktur eines Molybdän–Gadolinium-Heterometall-Komplexes Die Struktur von [Li(thf)4]2[Cp2MoSGdBr4(thf)]2

Synthesis and structure of a Molybdenum–Gadolinium Heterometallic Complex. The Structure of Li(thf)₄]₂Cp₂MoSGdBr₄(thf)]₂ Cp₂MoHLi] reacts in THF with S and GdBr₃ to yield the tetranuclear heterobimetallic complex Li(thf)₄]₂Cp₂MoSGdBr₄(thf)]₂. The bonding situation and the structure of this compound were characterized by X-ray structure analysis (space group P1 (No. 2), Z = 1, a = 10.845(2) Å, b = 12.166(2) Å, c = 15.881(2) Å, α = 101.74(2)°, β = 97.62(2)°, γ = 103.97(2)°). Each S atom of the central Mo₂S₂-ring is coordinated by a GdBr₄(thf) fragment. Additionally each Mo atom is connected to two Cp ligands. This leads to a tetrahedral coordination of the Mo atoms and a octahedral coordination of the Gd ions.
