Exceptionally strong electronic coupling between [Mo2] units linked by substituted dianionic quinones.
Ligands derived from N-CH(3) substituted benzoquinonemonoimines are exceedingly good facilitators of electronic communication between two quadruply bonded dimolybdenum units and provide record values for comproportionation constants.
