Abstract

. This contrasts with the reactivity of the all-molybdenum analogue and elemental sulfur which favors decomposition under analogous conditions. These results indicate that tuning the electronic structure of redox-active thiomolybdate metalloligands through heterometal substitution serves as an effective strategy for modulating multielectron reactivity at uranium.
