{1,1'-[(2,2-Dimethyl-propane-1,3-di-yl)bis-(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]di-2-naphthol-ato}dioxidomolybdenum(VI) dichloro-methane 1.75-solvate.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Mo(C(27)H(24)N(2)O(2))O(2)]·1.75CH(2)Cl(2), the Mo(VI) ion is coordinated by two oxide O atoms and by two O and two N atoms of the tetra-dentate 1,1'-[(2,2-dimethyl-propane-1,3-di-yl)bis-(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]di-2-naphtholate Schiff base ligand in a distorted octa-hedral configuration. The compound crystallizes with 1.75†mol-ecules of dichloro-methane per complex mol-ecule. In the crystal, symmetry-related mol-ecules are linked by a number of C-H⋯O inter-actions involving both the Schiff base ligand and the partly disordered dichloro-methane solvent mol-ecules, leading to the formation of a two-dimensional network extending parallel to (101).
