Abstract
Got to get up to get down: Oxidation of [(1,2,4-C5H2tBu3)Mo(PMe3)2H3] induces H2 reductive elimination and yields the first stable 15-electron molybdenum hydride complex, [(1,2,4-C5H2tBu3)Mo(PMe3)2H]+ (see picture). The stability of this complex can be attributed to steric protection, as no additional electron density is available on the ligands for a π-stabilization mechanism.
