Abstract

UV, IR, and NMR spectra of photolysis products obtained by irradiation of MoH4(Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2)2 (1) in an atmosphere of CO2,13CO2, or C18O2 were studied. In the coordination sphere of1, photochemical reduction of carbon dioxide occurs, yielding products of formate type. Treatment of photoproducts with acids affords formaldehyde.
