Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of [cis-MoO2L(MeOH)] (L = N′-(5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-chlorobenzohydrazide) are described. The dioxomolybdenum complex was prepared from 1:1 reaction mixture containing the benzohydrazone ligand and MoO2(acac)2. Orange single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of methanolic solution containing the complex, and were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The geometry around the molybdenum center is distorted octahedral in which a tridentate benzohydrazone ligand with two anionic oxygens and one neutral imine nitrogen occupies meridional position. The octahedral geometry of the cis-dioxomolybdenum center is additionally completed by a coordinated methanol solvent molecule. The complex was tested for the homogeneous oxidation of various olefins.
