Abstract: A chiral octahedral molybdenum complex(NH3CH2CH2CH2NH2)2[Mo<sup>0.4 W<sup>0.6 O2(C6H4O2)2] was obtained by the reaction of tetra-butyl ammonium β-octamolybdate with catechole and 1,3-diaminopropane in the mixed solvent of CH3OH and CH3CN, characterized by X-ray diffraction, and its interaction with ATP was studied by 1H, 13 C, 31 P and 15 N NMR. The crystal is orthorhombic with space group Pcan, a=0.750 1(2) nm, b=2.399 4(7) nm, c=1.217 8(4) nm, Z=4. The central metal ion exhibits distorted octahedral coordination with cis dioxo catechole. The 1H and 13 C NMR studies reveal that the central metals were reduced to M(Ⅴ) and a little catecholato ligand was hydrolyzed when the complex is dissolved in D2O but were oxidized to M(Ⅵ) and almost part of catecholato ligands dissociated with the central metals while it is mixed with ATP in D2O. The shift of the 1H, 13 C, 31 P and 15 N chemical shifts in adenine of ATP suggest that there is a coordinated interaction between central metal and the N atoms in adenine, and the coordination might be responsible for the anti-tumor and DNA cleavage activities of the title complex.
