Oxidomolybdenum(VI) complex [MoOCl(L-n)] with a tetradentate O3N-type aminoalcohol bis(phenol) was prepared as two separable isomers. These complexes can catalyse the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene and sulphoxidation of tolyl methyl sulphide as well as the oxotransfer reaction between PPh3 and DMSO. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.
