The Mo atom in the title compound, [Mo(CO)4(C12H27O3P)2], lies on an inversion centre and has slightly distorted octahedral geometry, with principal dimensions Mo-P 2.4699 (7), Mo-C 2.027 (4) 2.031 (3) Å, P-Mo-P 180, cis-C-Mo-C 88.7 (2), C-Mo-P 86.12 (10) and 87.27 (9)°. The geometry about the P atom is distorted from tetrahedral, with Mo-P-O angles in the range 108.04 (9)-126.03 (10)° and reduced O-P-O angles in the range 96.71 (13)-106.09 (14)°. The average cone angle for the tert-butyl phosphite ligand is 156°.
