We have surveyed the chemical utility of the near-edge structure of molybdenum x-ray absorption edges from the hard x-ray K-edge at 20,000 eV down to the soft x-ray M 4,5 -edges at ~230 eV. We compared, for each edge, the spectra of two tetrahedral anions, MoO 4 and MoS 42- . We used three criteria for assessing near-edge structure of each edge: (i) the ratio of the observed chemical shift between MoO 42- and MoS 42- and the linewidth, (ii) the chemical information from analysis of the near-edge structure and (iii) the ease of measurement using fluorescence detection. Not surprisingly, the K-edge was by far the easiest to measure, but it contained the least information. The L 2,3 -edges, although harder to measure, had benefits with regard to selection rules and chemical speciation in that they had both a greater chemical shift as well as detailed lineshapes which could be theoretically analyzed in terms of Mo ligand field, symmetry, and covalency. The soft x-ray M 2,3 -edges were perhaps the least useful, in that they were difficult to measure using fluorescence detection and had very similar information content to the corresponding L 2,3 -edges. Interestingly, the soft x-ray, low energy (~230 eV) edges can be made. This work includes crystallographic characterization of sodium tetrathiomolybdate.
