Take five : A unique quintuply bonded dimolybdenum complex [Mo 2 (μ‐Li){μ‐HC(N‐2,6‐Et 2 C 6 H 3 ) 2 } 3 ] (see picture) was synthesized and characterized. The MoMo interaction includes an unexpected bridging Li + ion. Calculations indicate the bridging Li + ion does not perturb the MoMo bond length (2.0612(4) Å), but results in a relatively small effective MoMo bond order of 3.67.
