The 14H12NO)2O2], comprises half of the complex with the full molecule generated by the application of twofold symmetry. The MoVI atom is surrounded by two oxide O atoms and the two sets of N,O-donor atoms of the bidentate Schiff base ligands. The resulting N2O4 donor set defines a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Intermolecular C—H⋯O contacts link molecules into chains along the b axis. The is further stabilized by intermolecular π–π interactions [ring centroid–centroid distance = 3.724 (6) Å].

The title complex was prepared by adding MoO2(acac)2 and the ligand (molar ratio 1:1) to dry methanol (30 ml), followed by refluxing for 1 h. Small, light-yellow crystals were filtered off and recrystallized from acetonitrile. The quality of the crystal was not optimal and it was weakly diffracting. Although recrystallization was attempted repeatedly, better crystals were not obtained.
All H atoms were positioned geometrically (C–H = 0.93–0.96 Å) and constrained to refine with the parent atoms with Uiso (H) = 1.2–1.5 Ueq (C).
Numerous chemical reactions are catalyzed by complexes containing the dioxomolybdenum(VI) unit, MoO2 (Arnaiz et al. 2000). Moreover, Schiff base compounds containing molybdenum play a significant role in the chemistry of molybdoenzymes (Holm et al. 1996; Syamal & Maurya, 1989).
The π–π interactions with the ring centroid(C1– C6) to centroid(C8–C13)i distance being 3.724 (6) Å for i: -x, y, 1/2-z.

The MoVI atom is surrounded by two oxo-O atoms and the N2O2 donor atoms of two bidentate Schiff base ligands to define a distorted octahedral coordination geometry.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Numerous chemical reactions are catalyzed by complexes containing the dioxomolybdenum(VI) unit, MoO2 (Arnaiz et al. 2000). Moreover, Schiff base compounds containing molybdenum play a significant role in the chemistry of molybdoenzymes (Holm et al. 1996; Syamal & Maurya, 1989).
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, Fig. 1, comprises half of the complex. The Mo atom is located on a crystallographic 2-fold axis. The MoVI atom is surrounded by two oxo-O atoms and the N2O2 donor atoms of two bidentate Schiff base ligands to define a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Intermolecular C—H···O contacts link molecules into chains along the b axis, Table 1 and Fig. 2. The crystal structure is further stabilized by intermolecular π–π interactions with the ring centroid(C1– C6) to centroid(C8–C13)i distance being 3.724 (6) Å for i: -x, y, 1/2-z.
