| Abstract: | A 4, 4'-bipyridine bridging dumbbell-like dimeric pentamolybdate [4, 4'-H2bipy]3[4,4'-Hbipy]2[(Mo5O17)2(4,4'-bipy)] has been synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, UV spectrum, TG and X-ray crystallography. The title compound crystallizes in triclinic, space group P(-1) with a = 10.578(2), b = 11.047(2), c = 16.576(3) (A), α = 79.86(3), β = 75.34(3), γ = 79.40(3)°, C60H58Mo1oN12O34, Mr = 2450.58, V = 1824.8(6) (A)3, Z = 1, Dc = 2.230 g/cm3, F(000) = 1194, μ = 1.757 mm-1, the final R = 0.0252 and wR = 0.0559 for 5506 observed reflections with I ＞ 2σ(Ⅰ). The structural analysis indicates that the title compound contains a novel polyanion [(Mo5O17)2(4,4'-bipy)]8-, in which two identical (Mo5O17)4- anions are buttressed by a 4,4'-bipyridine molecule through Mo-N bond. |
