Phenyl magnesium chloride solution (2.0 M in THF), (PhMgCl), triphenylaluminium solution (2.0 M in nBu2O), triphenyl boron solution (0.25 M in THF), magnesium chloride (MgCl2), and tetrahydrofuran (THF) were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. Mo6S8 Chevrel Phase powder (CP) was purchased from NEI corporation. Solid precursors were degassed from air and used without further purification. All the solvents were dried, kept over anhydrous CaCl2, filtered, degassed, and kept on tert-BuLi. The THF was kept on Ph3CLi in vacuum. The solvents were distilled before use.
