%X Complexes of the general formula Mo(CO)2L2X2 (L = pyridine (py), 2,2'-   dipyridyl (dipy), 1,l0-phenanthroline (phen); X = Cl, Br) have been isolated. The pyrldine derivatives are yellow monomeric compounds which are paramagnetic, but the complexes with dipy and phen contain diamagnetic seven-coordinate cations and are correctly formulated as [Mo(CO)2L2X]+X-. Conductance, infrared, magnetic, and electron spin resonance studies have been carried out.
