Abstract
A novel polynuclear Mo−Cu cluster compound (Et4N)4[MoS4Cu10Cl12] has been synthesized by the reaction of (NH4)2[MoS4], Et4NCl, and CuCl in acac/DMSO. The reaction mechanism has been monitored by dynamic 95Mo NMR spectra. X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis reveals that the anion structure consists of a central MoS4 moiety, an octahedral Cu6 array and a tetrahedral Cu4 array, representing the addition of 10 copper atoms across the six edges and four faces of MoS4 tetrahedron. The average Mo−Cu and Mo−S distances are 2.708(8) and 2.238(7) Å, respectively.
