The checker reports a 3.2-g yield of carbonyl complexes here based on 2.0 g of Mo(CO) . The mixture of carbonyl complexes can be filtered off and stored under nitrogen and is useful for the synthesis of other bis(dithiocarbamato)molybdenum compounds, t Thin-layer chromatography using a drop of the reaction-mixture spotted onto Bakerflex silica gel IB-F strips (20 x 10 cm) and eluted with dichloromethane (in the air) readily monitors the disappearance of the purple intermediate complexes. Brown cts-Mo(NO)j[S2CN(C2H5)2]2 moves with the solvent front while the purple complexes have Rf values of 0.5.
