Summary
On u.v. irradiation, the dinitrosyldithiocarbamato M(NO)2 (S2 CNR2 )2 (M = Mo or W) complexes are converted quantitatively into the mononitrosyl M(NO)(S2CNR2)3 complexes. The tungsten complex exhibits nonrigid behaviour at high temperatures; the activation energy for this process has been determined and compared to that of the molybdenum analogue. The M(NO)2 (MeCOCHCOMe)2 and M(NO)2 [(O)SCNR2]2 compounds have been prepared; these undergo conversion into uncharacterized nitrosyl derivatives upon irradiation. Cationic complexes of the type [M(NO)2 (MeCN)4]2+, [M(NO)2 (MeCN)3 X]+ and [M(NO)2 (MeCN)2 (MeCOCHCOMe)]+ have been prepared and their exchange with CD3CN studied. Exchange occursvia a dissociative process and is stereospecific for [M(NO)2 (MeCN)4 ]2+ (M = Mo or W) and [M(NO)2 (MeCN)3 X]+ (M = MO, X = Cl; M = W, X = Br).

It is noteworthy that we have established that VO(S2CNMe2)3 for which a structure similar to Mo(NO)(S2CNMe2)3 has been established undergoes IS2CNMe2F dissociation.
