Tungsten disulfide is an inorganic chemical compound composed of tungsten and sulfur with the chemical formula WS 2. This compound is part of the group of materials called the transition metal dichalcogenides. It occurs naturally as the rare mineral tungstenite. This material is a component of certain catalysts used for hydrodesulfurization and ...
Molybdenum disulfide is stable in air and attacked only by aggressive reagents. It reacts with oxygen upon heating forming molybdenum trioxide: 2 MoS 2 + 7 O 2 → 2 MoO 3 + 4 SO 2. Chlorine attacks molybdenum disulfide at elevated temperatures to form molybdenum pentachloride: 2 MoS 2 + 7 Cl 2 → 2 MoCl 5 + 2 S 2 Cl 2

A transition metal oxo complex is a coordination complex containing an oxo ligand. Formally O 2–, an oxo ligand can be bound to one or more metal centers, i.e. it can exist as a terminal or (most commonly) as bridging ligands. Oxo ligands stabilize high oxidation states of a metal. [1] They are also found in several metalloproteins, for ...
Transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD or TMDC) monolayers are atomically thin semiconductors of the type MX 2, with M a transition-metal atom (Mo, W, etc.) and X a chalcogen atom (S, Se, or Te). One layer of M atoms is sandwiched between two layers of X atoms. They are part of the large family of so-called 2D materials, named so to emphasize ...
The chemistry of molybdenum and tungsten show strong similarities. The relative rarity of molybdenum(III), for example, contrasts with the pervasiveness of the chromium(III) compounds. The highest oxidation state is seen in molybdenum(VI) oxide (MoO 3), whereas the normal sulfur compound is molybdenum disulfide MoS 2. [23]
3D model of the molybdate ion. In chemistry, a molybdate is a compound containing an oxyanion with molybdenum in its highest oxidation state of +6: O−−Mo (=O)2−O−. Molybdenum can form a very large range of such oxyanions, which can be discrete structures or polymeric extended structures, although the latter are only found in the solid ...
Hydrodesulfurization (HDS), also called hydrotreatment or hydrotreating, is a catalytic chemical process widely used to remove sulfur (S) from natural gas and from refined petroleum products, such as gasoline or petrol, jet fuel, kerosene, diesel fuel, and fuel oils. [1][2][3] The purpose of removing the sulfur, and creating products such as ...
