In a Schlenk tube, under anaerobic and anhydrous conditions, (η5-C5H5)Mo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)2 (100 mg, 0.27 mmol) was combined with p-fluorophenol (31 mg, 0.27 mmol), and the mixture was dissolved in THF (20 ml). The resulting purple solution was stirred for 3 days at room temperature, whereupon it became deep red. The THF was removed in vacuo, and the resulting red oil was dissolved in hexanes (30 ml) and filtered through a column of Celite (2 cm x 2 cm). The volume of this filtrate was reduced to 4 ml, and it was cooled to -30°C overnight to induce the deposition of (I) as a dark red powder (64 mg, 60% yield). X-ray quality crystals were grown from a concentrated hexanes solution at -30°C over the course of several weeks. IR (Nujol): 1635 cm-1 (νNO). 1H NMR (200 MHz, C6D6): δ 6.81 (t, 2H, C—Hm), 7.02 (dd, 2H, C—Ho), 5.19 (s, 5H, C5H5), 2.48 (d, 1H, CH2SiMe3), 1.97 (d, 1H, CH2SiMe3), 0.17 (s, 9H, SiCH3). 13C NMR (200 MHz, C6D6): δ 118.6 (C—F), 116.1 (C—Ho), 115.6 (C—Hm), 104.7 (C5H5), 49.3 (CH2Si), 1.93 (SiCH3).
Data were collected in 0.50° oscillations with 60.0 s exposures. A sweep of data was carried out using ϕ oscillations from 0.0 to 190.0° at χ = -90° and a second sweep was performed using ω oscillations between -23.0 and 18.0° at χ = -90.0°. The crystal-to-detector distance was 39.25 mm. The detector swing angle was -10.43°.
The absorption correction is based on a three-dimensional analysis of symmetry-equivalent data and is performed along with batch scaling in a single step. The resulting transmission factors, therefore, include contributions from absorption, crystal decay, and detectable variations in beam intensity.

Many attempts to generate molybdenum– and tungsten–alkoxo complexes in our laboratories have been unsuccessful. The standard metathetical protocol, using a metal–halide precursor with an alkali metal–alkoxide salt, often results in either decomposition or the formation of N—O bond-cleavage products (Legzdins et al., 1996). An alternate procedure, namely protonation of the alkyl ligand in CpMo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)2 by an alcohol to generate the corresponding alkoxo complex and SiMe4, has now been found to generate a variety of new complexes in good yield. The title compound, CpMo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)(p-FC6H4O), (I) (Fig. 1), has been synthesized by this method.
Compound (I) exhibits a pseudo-tetrahedral geometry around the Mo atom typical of this class of three-legged piano-stool molecules. The Mo—N—O linkage is linear [Mo1—N1—O1 168.2 (3)°], with a short Mo1—N1 distance [1.764 (2) Å] and a long N—O distance [1.207 (3) Å], relative to most other nitrosyls (Feltham & Enemark, 1981). This indicates that the nitrosyl ligand is strongly involved in π-back-bonding with the Mo centre. The phenoxo Mo—O distance is 1.945 (2) Å, significantly longer than the W—O distances in the related complexes Cp*W(NO)(OCH2Ph)2 [1.910 (4) Å] and Cp*W(NO)(OCMe3)2 [Cp* is pentamethylcyclopentadienyl; 1.890 (5) and 1.903 (5) Å, respectively; Legzdins et al., 1993], where the metal–oxygen bond has definite multiple-bond character. However, it is shorter than the W—O bonds in Cp*W(NO)(OMe)[η2-O═C(Me)CH═CPh] [2.001 (7) Å; Legzdins et al., 1998] and Cp*W(NO)(OCMe3)[η2-N(CMe3)═C(CH2CMe3)] [1.978 (4) Å; Legzdins et al., 1994]. The W—O bonds in these two compounds, by the nature of the η2-bound co-ligands, are single bonds, which then suggests that the Mo—O link in (I) is somewhat more than a single bond. Comparison to other W and Mo complexes, namely Cp*W(MeCCMe)2(OPh) [W—O 2.072 (7) Å; O'Regan et al., 1992], [Cp*W(Me)2(OC6F5)]2(µ-N2) [W—O 2.079 (8) Å; O'Regan et al., 1990], and [Mo2(OPh-4-Me)7(Me2NH)2]- [Mo—Oterminal 2.03 Å (average); Coffindaffer et al., 1985], further supports this assumption.
