{2,2'-[(2,2-Dimethyl-propane-1,3-di-yl)-bis-(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]-diphenolato}-dioxidomolybdenum(VI).

In the structure of the title compound, [Mo(C(19)H(20)N(2)O(2))O(2)], the Mo atom exhibits oxidation state +VI and is surrounded by two O atoms and the tetra-dentate Schiff base ligand 2,2'-[(2,2-dimethyl-propane-1,3-di-yl)bis-(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenolate in a distorted octa-hedral configuration. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond between a methyl-ene group and one O atom of the O=Mo(VI)=O unit, as well as additional inter-molecular hydrogen bonds between neighboring mol-ecules, lead to a weakly bonded inversion-symmetric dimeric structure.
