Dimerization of Incomplete Cuboidal Mo3S4 Units via α,ω-Dicarboxylates, and Their Supramolecular Architectures through Intermolecular S···S and C–H···S Interactions
Two novel hexanuclear molybdenum cluster compounds [Mo3S4(dtp)3(L)]2[η2-μ-OOC(CH2)nCOO-μ-η2] (n = 4, L = DMF for 1; n = 3, L = DMSO for 2) have been synthesized by reaction of Mo3S4(dtp)3(ClCH2COO)(Py) with α,ω-dicarboxylates. Intermolecular S···S and C–H···S interactions are observed, yielding two different two-dimensional supramolecular structures.
