    CCS can be a ligand. It can form an asymmetrical bridge between two molybdenum atoms in Mo2(μ,σ(C):η 2 (C′S)-CCS)(CO) 4 (hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate) 2 In this one carbon atom has a triple bond to a molybdenum and the other has a double bond to the other molybdenum atom, which also has a single bond to the sulfur atom.
