New bis(ene-1,2-dithiolato)-oxido–alcoholato molybdenum(VI) and -oxido–thiolato molybdenum(VI) anionic complexes, denoted as [MoVIO(ER)L2]– (E = O, S; L = dimethoxycarboxylate-1,2-ethylenedithiolate), were obtained from the reaction of the corresponding dioxido-molybdenum(VI) precursor complex with either an alcohol or a thiol in the presence of an organic acid (e.g., 10-camphorsulfonic acid) at low temperature. The[MoVIO(ER)L2]– complexes were isolated and characterized, and the structure of[MoVIO(OEt)L2]– was determined by X-ray crystallography. The Mo(VI) center in [MoVIO(OEt)L2]–exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry with the two ene-1,2-dithiolate ligands being symmetry inequivalent. The computed structure of [MoVIO(SR)L2]– is essentially identical to that of[MoVIO(OR)L2]–. The electronic structures of the resulting molybdenum(VI) complexes were evaluated using electronic absorption spectroscopy and bonding calculations. The nature of the distorted Oh geometry in these [MoVIO(EEt)L2]– complexes results in a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital wave function that possesses strong π* interactions between the Mo(dxy) orbital and the cis S(pz) orbital localized on one sulfur donor from a single ene-1,2-dithiolate ligand. The presence of a covalent Mo–Sdithiolene bonding interaction in these monooxido Mo(VI) compounds contributes to their low-energy ligand-to-metal charge transfer transitions. A second important d–p π bonding interaction derives from the ∼180° Ooxo–Mo–E–C dihedral angle involving the alcoholate and thiolate donors, and this contributes to ancillary ligand contributions to the electronic structure of these species. The formation of [MoVIO(OEt)L2]– and [MoVIO(SEt)L2]–from the dioxidomolybdenum(VI) precursor may be regarded as a model for the active-site formation process that occurs in the dimethyl sulfoxide reductase family of pyranopterin molybdenum enzymes.
