  1. aEach model is shown in Supplementary Figs. 6, 7.
  2. bMoi denotes the Mo atom at the Mi site.
  3. cDFT-calculated peak position under 18.79 T was obtained using the correlation in Supplementary Fig. 5a, including the second-order quadrupolar shift.
  4. dQuadrupolar coupling constant |CQ|. Experimental |CQ| was estimated from the NMR spectrum (Fig. 3b) with DMFIT69.
