✦ Synopsis
Previous attempts to determine the strengths of multiple metal-metal bonds are reviewed. Estimates of 73 and 97 kcal/mole for the Mo-Mo bond energies in MoZCle-and Mo2(02CH)4, respectively, are obtained by combining the known experimental bond energy in M o ~ (96.5 f 5 kcal/mole) with the results of S C F -X a -S W calculations on Mo2, Mo2Cle-, and Mo2(02CH)4. Possible errors in the estimates are discussed. It is noted that the quadruple bonds in the complexes are predicted stronger per component than the sextuple bond in the diatomic.
