N2 - The hydrothermal reaction of CuSO4 · 5H2O, MoO3, 4,4′-ditertbutyl-2,2′-biyridine and H2O in the mole ratio 2:1.5:1:2500 yields [Cu6(dtbbpy)6Mo7O26] 2[Mo8O26] · 26H2O (1 · 26H2O). The structure of 1 · 26H2O consists of discrete α-[Mo8O26]4- anions and [Cu6(dtbbpy)6Mo7O26]2+ cations. The polyoxocation is constructed of an equatorial ring of three edge-sharing {MoO6} octahedra, capped on one face by a {Mo3Cu3O6} ring of corner-sharing molybdenum tetrahedra and copper square pyramids, and on the second face by a {Cu3MoO4} unit.
