Half-sandwich cyclopentadienyl polyhydride derivatives of the transition metals have recently been the subject of intensive experimental and theoretical investigations, especially with regard to their high fluxionality and the choice between classical and nonclassical formulations and the consequent effects on physical properties and reactivity. This paper reports that, in the solid state, the Cp{sub *}MoH{sub -3}(dppe) compound adopts a novel structure for the (ring)MH{sub -3}L{sub -2} stoichiometry which is based on the trigonal prism rather than the octahedron and the structure of a protonation product, which suggests a likely path for the fluxional process. 24 refs., 2 figs.
