Article Abstract
Substitutions of trans-Na(Him)[Mo(2)O(4)(ox)(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·H(2)O (1) and trans-(Him)(2)[Mo(2)O(4)(ox)(2)(H(2)O)(2)] (2) with imidazole result in the formation of the mixed-ligand molybdenum complexes cis-Na(2)[Mo(2)O(4)(ox)(2)(im)(2)]·4.5H(2)O (3), cis-K(2)[Mo(2)O(4)(ox)(2)(im)(2)]·3H(2)O (4), respectively (H(2)ox = oxalic acid; im = imidazole). Further reduction of cis-K(2)[Mo(2)O(4)(ox)(2)(im)(2)]·3H(2)O (4) gives a trinuclear molybdenum(IV) complex K(Him)[Mo(3)O(4)(ox)(3)(im)(3)]·3H(2)O (5), which contains an incomplete cubane cluster [Mo(IV)(3)O(4)](4+). Two novel trinuclear mixed-valence imidazole compounds [Mo(3)O(8)(im)(4)](im)·H(2)O (6) and [Mo(3)O(8)(im)(4)]·H(2)O (7) were obtained by the reduction of (Him)(4)[Mo(8)O(26)(im)(2)] (8). Both 6 and 7 contain a novel Mo(VI)O(4)(Mo(V)(2)O(4)) center, where the [Mo(V)(2)O(4)](2+) unit is linked by [Mo(VI)O(4)](2-) anion. The Mo-Mo bond distances in 1-7 decrease with the decrease of oxidation state of molybdenum. Solid and solution NMR spectra show that imidazole molybdenum compounds 6-8 fully dissociate in solution, where solvated imidazole and imidazolium groups in 6 and 8 could be served as internal references in their solid (13)C NMR spectra. Furthermore, mixed-ligand molybdenum species 3 and 4 are stable in water. Stabilities of 3 and 4 in solution may be attributed to the strong coordination of bidentate oxalate and the formation of hydrogen bond. Dimers 2 and 4 display quasi-reversible redox process, while trimer 6 is irreversible. Bond valence calculations for 1-8 are consistent with their oxidation states of molybdenum atoms. Calculation of the oxidation state in recent structure of iron molybdenum cofactor [MoFe(7)S(9)C(R-homocit)] (FeMo-co) is 3.318.

Ligand functionalization has been thoroughly leveraged to alter the properties of paddlewheel-based coordination cages where, in the case of ligand-terminated cages, functional groups are positioned on the periphery of synthesized cages. While these groups can be used to optimize solubility, porosity, crystal packing, thermal stability toward desolvation, reactivity, or optical activity, optimization of multiple properties can be challenging given their interconnected nature. For example, installation of functional groups to increase the solubility of porous cages typically has the effect of decreasing their porosity and stability toward thermal activation.

The transport and cytotoxicity of molybdenum-based drugs have been explained with the concept of chemical transformation, a very important idea in inorganic medicinal chemistry that is often overlooked in the interpretation of the biological activity of metal-containing systems. Two monomeric, [MoO(L)(MeOH)] () and [MoO(L)(EtOH)] (), and two mixed-ligand dimeric MoO species, [{MoO(L)}(μ-4,4'-bipy)] (-), were synthesized and characterized. The structures of the solid complexes were solved through SC-XRD, while their transformation in water was clarified by UV-vis, ESI-MS, and DFT.

We developed a hydrodehalogenation reaction of polyhaloalkanes catalyzed by paddlewheel dimolybdenum complexes in combination with 1-methyl-3,6-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-cyclohexadiene (MBTCD) as a non-toxic H-atom source as well as a salt-free reductant. A mixed-ligated dimolybdenum complex Mo(OAc)[CH(NAr)] (, Ar = 4-MeOCH) having two acetates and two amidinates exhibited high catalytic activity in the presence of BuNCl, in which [ BuN][Mo{CH(NAr)}Cl] (), derived by treating with ClSiMe and BuNCl, was generated as a catalytically-active species in the hydrodehalogenation. All reaction processes, oxidation and reduction of the dimolybdenum complex, were clarified by control experiments, and the oxidized product, [ BuN][Mo{CH(NAr)}Cl] (), was characterized by EPR and X-ray diffraction studies.

Article Synopsis
- The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of different molybdenum tris(dithiolene) complex anions show varying spin density characteristics based on their ligand composition.
- The [Mo(tfd)(3)](-) complex has more ligand-based spin, while [Mo(bdt)(3)](-) exhibits a higher degree of metal-based spin; the isotropic (95,97)Mo hyperfine interaction increases by 2.5 times from one to the other.
- Mixed-ligand complexes display intermediate properties, with increased metal character in spin correlating to higher bdt content, and these findings align with density functional theory calculations.
