Industrial and Medicinal Properties Of Dioxomolybdenum(VI) Complexes

By Jan Mohammad Mir

Molybdenum (42Mo96) is an essential trace element in the human body, animals and plants. The known molybdenum containing enzymes exceed the number of 50. High valent molybdenum centers are characteristic of oxomolybdenum enzymes. Although it can form complexes with numerous physiologically important compounds, it was supposed that this trace element is absorbed, transported and excreted in a simple molybdate form. Due to its role in the processes of nitrogen fixation and nitrate reduction, molybdenum is essential for normal growth and development of plants and sometimes it is necessary to enrich the substrate with some molybdenum compounds. It has been also reported that molybdenum significantly affects protein synthesis, as well as metabolism of phosphorus, sulphur, potassium, copper, zinc, and iodine, and addition of this trace elements into the fodder stimulated the growth of several domestic animal species.
