The Kinetics and Mechanism of the Reaction of Molybdenum(V) with Iodine, Oxygen and Nitrate

Molybdenum compounds present a series of baffling chemical puzzles. By no means are all of these yet even clearly defined and many may never be. This complexity results from the ability of molybdenum to form six different oxidation states, which can possess three different coordination numbers. Furt...

description Molybdenum compounds present a series of baffling chemical puzzles. By no means are all of these yet even clearly defined and many may never be.
