The complexes contain a trans,trans-Mo(μ-dppm)2Ru unit with a bridging thiolate, a terminal hydride at the Ru, three terminal CO ligands (two at the Mo, and one at the Ru), and one semi-bridged CO closer to the Mo.}, issn = {00201693}, doi = {10.1016/j.ica.2009.12.002}, author = {Khorasani-Motlagh,Mozhgan and Safari,Nasser and Pamplin,Craig B. and Patrick,Brian O. and James, Brian R.} }
