Catalytic Properties of the Dioxomolybdenum Siloxide MoO2(OSiPh3)2 and its 2,2′-Bipyridine Adduct MoO2(OSiPh3)2(bpy). Abstract The tetrahedral triphenylsiloxy complex MoO2(OSiPh3)2 (1) and its Lewis base adduct with 2,2′-bipyridine, MoO2(OSiPh3)2(bpy) (2), were prepared and characterised by IR/Raman spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. Both compounds catalyse the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene at 55 ºC using tert-butylhydroperoxide (t-BuOOH) is decane as the…
