The title compound, [Mo(4)(C(16)H(20))(2)O(8)]·6H(2)O, is a centrosymmetric ansa-molybdocene complex in which two dinuclear [C(2)Me(4)(η(5)-C(5)H(4))(2)]Mo(μ(2)-O)(2)MoO(2) units dimerize by forming two μ(3)-O bridges between three Mo atoms. The ansa-molybdocene [C(2)Me(4)(η(5)-C(5)H(4))(2)]Mo unit has a typical bent-sandwich metallocene structure with an inter-ring angle of 127.98 (8)°. The Mo atom in the bridging (μ(2)-O)(μ(3)-O)(2)MoO(2) group has a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination ...[more]
