Abstract:

The title compound, (C8H12N)(2)[MoS4], was synthesized by the aqueous reaction of ammonium tetrathiomolybdate with benzyl(methyl) amine in a 1:2 molar ratio. The structure consists of a slightly distorted tetrahedral [MoS4](2-) dianion and two crystallographically independent benzyl(methyl)ammonium cations, with all atoms located in general positions. The cations and anions are linked by weak N-H...S and C-H...S interactions, the strength and number of which can explain the observed Mo-S bond distances.
