Abstract: | A new molybdenum(VI) oxalato complex, BaMoO3(C2O4)]·3H2O (BMO), was prepared and characterized by chemical analysis and infrared spectral studies. Thermal decomposition studies were made using thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis. Dehydration reactions take place up to 280°C in three stages with loss of one half, one and a half and one mole of water per mole of BMO, respectively. Decomposition of oxalate takes place between 280 and 435°C in a single step to give BaMoO4 as the end product, which was characterized by chemical analysis, infrared and X-ray studies. The X-ray diffraction pattern of BMO shows that it is an amorphous compound. A chain structure containing MoO6 octahedra linked through oxygen is proposed on the basis of the infrared absorption spectrum. |
