Abstract
The presence of multiply bonded dimetal units in materials offers opportunities for tuning properties of solids. Materials containing molybdenum-molybdenum quadruple bonds have recently begun being reported. This thesis reports the products of the reactions of dimethyl sulfide (DMS), acetonitrile (ACN) and acetate complexes, Mo2CI4(DMS)4, Mo2(ACN)10ABF4, and Mo2(0Ac)4 with 2,2';6,2"-terpyridine, 4'-phenyl 2,2';6,2"-terpyridine, 2,3,5,6-tetrakis (alpha-pyridyl) pyrazine and 1,3-bis(4-methylimino)isoindoline. Among these ligands, 2,3,5,6-tetrakis (alpha-pyridyl) pyrazine may lead to linear arrays of metal-metal bonds as well as other ordered structures. 1H-NMR, electronic absorption, and infrared data will be quoted to support any structural assignments.
