Abstract

The hydrothermal reactions of MoO3, an appropriate Cu(II) source, and a dipodal nitrogen donor ligand yielded a series of bimetallic oxides [Cu2Mo4O13(3,3′-bipy)2] ·H2O(1·H2O), [CuMo4O13(Hdipyreth)] (2), and [Cu(dpp)]2[Cu2(α-Mo8O26) (dpp)2]·2H2O (3·2H2O). (3,3′-bipy = 3,3′-bipyridine; dipyreth = 1,2-bis(2-pyridyl)ethylene; dpp = 4,4′-trimethylenedipyridine). The materials 1· H2O and 2 are constructed from octamolybdate clusters linked through copper-ligand subunits, while 3·2H2O exhibits fused octamolybdate building blocks in a two-dimensional molybdate chain.
