Experimental and Computational Studies of the Metal-Metal Stretching Vibration in X 3 M¿MX 3 Compounds (X = Alkoxide, Alkyl, Amide)

Raman spectra of a number of triply bonded M2X6 (M = Mo, W; X = alkoxide, alkyl) compounds have been obtained. Several exhibit a band assignable to the metal−metal stretching vibration νM⋮M. This b...
