Abstract: | A new phosphate of molybdenum (V) K4Mov8P12O52 has been isolated and its structure solved from a single crystal X-ray diffraction study. It crystallizes in a monoclinic cell, space groupC2–c, with the parametersa = 10.7433(16)Å,b = 14.0839(9)Å,c = 8.8519(7)Å, and β = 126.42(1)°. After refinement of the different parameters, the reliability factors were lowered toR = 0.026 andw = 0.029. The framework “Mo8P12O52” can be described as corner-sharing PO4 tetrahedra,P2O7groups, and MoO6 octahedra. Although the “O6” octahedron surrounding the molybdenum ion is almost regular, the metal ion is strongly off center so that its coordination is better described as a MoO5 pyramid. This particular coordination, which characterizes Mo(V), is discussed. |
