Hydrothermal Synthesis and Structure of a Novel Binuclear Molybdenum Complex with Oxalate Ligand,(enH2){NH4Co(en)3Mo2O7(C2O4)}2·2H2O

摘要

The title complex (enH2){NH4[Co(en)3][Mo2O7(C2O4)]}2·2H2O (C18H70Co2Mo4- N16O24, Mr = 1396.52) was obtained under hydrothermal conditions and its crystal structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 17.8023(8), b = 7.7527(4), c = 16.9781(4)A,β= 103.878(7)°, V = 2274.8(2) A3, Dc = 2.039 g/cm3, Z = 2,μ(MoKα) = 1.878 mm-1 and F(000) = 1408. The final R = 0.0410 and Wr = 0.1070 for 4065 observed reflections with I≥2σ(I). The crystal structure is composed of bi- nuclear [Mo2O7(C2O4)]4- anions, complex [Co(en)3]2+ cations, protonated ethylenediamine cations, ammonium cations and crystal water molecules, which are held together into a three-dimensional network via hydrogen-bonding interactions. The binuclear structure of [Mo2O7(C2O4)]4- consist of one MoO4 and one MoO6 octahedra through sharing a bridging oxygen atom, where the oxalate ligand acts as a bidentate ligand coordinating to the octahedral molybdenum atom though two deprotonated corboxylate groups.
