A decanuclear oxomolybdenum(V,VI) cluster with 4-isopropylpyridine

The title centrosymmetric cluster octakis(4-iso­propyl­pyridine-N)-di-μ₄-oxo-hexa-μ₃-oxo-octa-μ₂-oxo-deca­oxo­octa­molyb­denum(V)­dimolybdenum(VI), [Mo₁₀O₂₆(C₈H₁₁N)₈], consists of ten Mo atoms connected together by bridging oxo groups. Pentavalent Mo atoms are linked into four Mo₂^V pairs by metal–metal single bonds with lengths of 2.5637 (6) and 2.6132 (6) Å.
