Described herein are IC devices that include molybdenum or a molybdenum compound, such as compounds including oxygen or nitrogen. The molybdenum may be deposited at a high concentration, e.g., at least 50% atomic density. Also described herein are mid-valent molybdenum precursors for depositing molybdenum, and reactions for producing the mid-valent molybdenum precursors. For example, the molybdenum precursors may be generated by reacting a higher-valent molybdenum compound with an amidinate or a formamidinate.
