Abstract:
In the title compound, [Mo(C37H53N3)(CO)(3)], the Mo atom to ring-centroid distance in the eta(6)-coordinated tricarbonyl-molybdenum group is 1.958 (1) angstrom. The three C O groups are pseudo-octahedrally disposed with C-Mo-C angles ranging from 80.7 (1) to 87.4 (1)degrees. The two uncoordinated 2,6-diisopropylphenyl-substituted benzene rings form dihedral angles of 75.96 (8) and 78.01 (9)degrees with the mean plane of the guanidine group. The coordinated benzene ring is in a slight sofa conformation with the N-substituted C atom and the bonded N atom dispaced by 0.090 (3) and 0.458 (4) angstrom, respectively, from the mean plane of the remaining ring atoms. In the crystal, despite there being two N-H donor groups, no conventional hydrogen bonds are present. This may be because of the steric effects of the bulky diisopropylphenyl groups.
