Novel mixed-valence heteropolyoxometalates: a molybdenum diphosphonate anion [MoV7MoVIO16(O3PPhPO3H)4]3- and its one- and two-dimensional assemblies.
A novel mixed-valence polyoxomolybdenum anion, [Mo(V)(7)Mo(VI)O(16)(O(3)PPhPO(3)H)(4)](3)(-), was synthesized hydrothermally from molybdenum oxide, molybdenum metal, boric and phosphoric acids, 1,2-phenyldiphosphonic acid, and imidazole (ImH) and was structurally characterized as an imidazolium salt (orthorhombic, Aba2; a = 16.674(4), b = 17.238(1), and c = 24.81(2) A). One- and two-dimensional structures of this anion and additional molybdenum diphosphonate linkers were assembled as well. They were structurally characterized as their pyridinium (pyH) salts (pyH)(4)[[Mo(V)(7)Mo(VI)O(16)(O(3)PPhPO(3))(2)(O(3)PPhPO(3)H)(2)][Mo(2)O(4)(OH)(HO(3)PPhPO(3)H)]].5H(2)O (monoclinic, P2(1)/c; a = 20.8506(9), b = 22.866(1), and c = 21.1403(9) A; beta = 118.7087(8) degrees ) and (pyH)(3)[[Mo(V)(7)Mo(VI)O(16)(O(3)PPhPO(3))(4)][Mo(2)O(2)(OH)(2)(HO(3)PPhPO(3)H)]].3H(2)O (orthorhombic, Pca2(1); a = 19.057(1), b = 20.402(2), and c = 20.660(2) A). The compounds were also characterized by IR spectroscopy and magnetic measurements.
