Catalytic Properties of the Dioxomolybdenum Siloxide MoO2(OSiPh3)2 and its 2,2'-Bipyridine Adduct MoO2(OSiPh3)2(bpy)

The tetrahedral triphenylsiloxy complex MoO2(OSiPh3)2 (1) and its Lewis baseadduct with 2,2'-bipyridine, MoO2(OSiPh3)2(bpy) (2), were prepared and characterised byIR/Raman spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Both compounds catalyse theepoxidation of cis-cyclooctene at 55 oC using tert...
