Summary: | The chemistry of transition metal clusters has been intensively developed in the last decades, leading to the preparation of a number of compounds with promising and practically useful properties. In this context, the present work demonstrates the preparation and study of the reactivity, i.e., the possibility of varying the ligand environment, of new square pyramidal molybdenum chalcogenide clusters [{Mo5(μ3-S)i4(μ4-S)i(μ-pz)i4}(pzH)t5]1+/2+ (pzH = pyrazole, i = inner, t = terminal). The one-step synthesis starting from the octahedral Mo6Br12 cluster as well as the substitution of the apical pyrazole ligand or the selective bromination of the inner pyrazolate ligands were demonstrated. All the obtained compounds were characterized in detail using a series of physicochemical methods both in solid state (X-ray diffraction analysis, etc.) and in solution (nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, etc.). In this work, redox properties and absorption in the ultraviolet-visible and near-infrared region of the obtained compounds were studied. |
