cis-Di-μ-oxido-bis­[(N,N-diethyl­dithio­carbamato-κ(2) S,S′)oxidomolybdenum(V)](Mo—Mo) tetra­hydro­furan monosolvate

The title compound, [Mo(2)(C(5)H(10)NS(2))(2)O(4)]·C(4)H(8)O, can be readily prepared in tetra­hydro­furan (THF) by an oxidation reaction between the Mo(IV) precursor [MoO(S(2)CNEt(2))(2)] with [ReMeO(3)]. The compound is an axially symmetric Mo(V) dimer (2 symmetry), in which the metal atoms exhibit a distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment. A THF mol­ecule was found to be equally disordered over two symmetry-related sites (around a twofold rotation axis), trans-coordinated to the apical oxido group and weakly inter­acting with the Mo(V) atoms [Mo—O = 2.6213 (19) Å]. In the crystal, some weak C—H⋯O inter­actions occur between the terminal oxido and neighbouring —CH(3) groups of an adjacent [Mo(μ-O)O(S(2)CNEt(2))](2) unit.
