The d 2 configuration of Mo in MoMes 4 (Mes = 2,4,6‐(CH 3 ) 3 C 6 H 2 ) is characterized by gas‐phase UP and solid‐state XP spectroscopic measurements giving evidence for a static splitting related to the typical D 2d distortion of pseudotetrahedral tetra‐σ‐carbon bonded transition elements, and the consequent σ and π bond effects. Bond energies of ca. 6.4 eV (av.) and 229.7 eV are reported for MoMes 4 , respectively for 4d and 3d 5/2 , in the range normaly observed for Mo IV compounds, whereas [Mo V Mes 4 ] + I 3 − has a considerable high‐energy shift on the 3d 5/2 signal, to 232.0 eV, possibly related to weak Madelung interactions in the solid‐state structure.
