Abstract

The (formal) replacement of one P atom of P₁₆^2- by {Mo(CO)₄} resulted in the isolation of [(η²-P₁₅)Mo(CO)₄]^3- (1) as its [Na(crypt-222)]⁺ salt. Quantum-chemical calculations show that anion 1 preserves the overall P₁₆^2--derived framework, but undergoes local geometric opening and electronic redistribution at the insertion site.
