Abstract
(PyH)[MoOBr4(H2O)] · 2/3PyHBr (PyH+ = pyridinium cation, C5H5NH+) yielded upon the solvothermal reaction with ethanol and 4-methylpyridine (4-MePy, C6H7N) a novel oxoethoxomolybdenum(V) cluster, [Mo12O28 (OC2H5)4(4-MePY)8] 1. Molybdenum atoms are grouped into six Mo2v pairs linked by single metal-metal bonds. Three crystallographically independent Mo-Mo distances are 2.5578(14), 2.5981(14) and 2.6489(16) Å.
