An unprecedented 2D isopolymolybdate with (32·4)(32·53·8)(3·42·54·6·82)(34·43·54·64) topology

A novel two-dimensional molybdenum oxide polymer, [Mo4O13]n · 2nH3O, has been prepared under specific hydrothermal conditions and characterized by IR spectroscopy and TG analysis. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that compound 1 exhibits a (3, 4, 5, 6)-connected 2D layer structure with (32·4)(32·53·8)(3·42·54·6·82)(34·43·54·64) topology, which is constructed by two parallel molybdenum oxide dimeric chains (Mo2O10)n bound together by the dimer of Mo2O9 subunits via the sharing of corners. Additionally, the electrochemistry activity of compound 1 is also reported.

[Mo4O13]n · 2nH3O: the first (3, 4, 5, 6)-connected two-dimensional framework constructed from isopolymolybdate with (32·4)(32·53·8)(3·42·54·6·82)(34·43·54·64) topology.A novel two-dimensional molybdenum oxide polymer, [Mo4O13]n · 2nH3O, has been synthesized and represents the first example of 2D layer structure with (32·4)(32·53·8) (3·42·54·6·82)(34·43·54·64) topology, in which two parallel molybdenum oxide dimeric chains (Mo2O10)n are bound together by the dimer of Mo2O9 subunits via the sharing of corners.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
