Synthetic application of cis dioxo molybdenum complex

Abstract

The isomeric form of dioxomolybdenum complexes have a variety path of application to synthesis the various valuable compounds. The geometrical form cisdioxomolybdenum takes the role in epoxidation sulfoxidation and phosphine oxidation reactions. In this course Dioxomolybdenum (VI) complexes can also be prepared with Schiff bases of amino acids. [11, 13] The general method for the preparation of such complexes follows the same procedure as shown in (scheme 1). The Schiff base which contains phenolic, carboxylic and imine groups acts as dianionic tridentate ligand which when complexes with suitable Mo-precursor give cis-dioxo Mo (VI) complexes.
