Synthesis and characterization of tricarbonyl-molybdenum complexes bearing monoaza-trithia-macrocyclic ligands

Novel tricarbonyl-molybdenum complexes fac-[Mo(CO)3(L12Py)] (L12Py = N-(2-pyridylmethyl)-1,4,7-trithia-10-azacyclododecane) and fac-[Mo(CO)3(L14H)] (L14H = 1,4,7-trithia-11-azacyclotetradecane), have been synthesized by the reaction of [Mo(CO)6] with monoaza-trithia-macrocyclic ligands in toluene.
