A novel organic–inorganic hybrid compound based on Anderson-type polyoxometalates and anthranilamide

A new organic-inorganic hybrid material, (C7H9N2O)2[Al(OH)7Mo6O17]·12H2O (1), was prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV–visible spectroscopies, TG–DTA analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1¯ with a = 10.237(2) Å, b = 10.415(1) Å, c = 10.545(1) Å, α = 87.27(1)°, β = 102.17(1)°, γ = 95.24(1)°, Z = 1. Single-crystal X-ray analysis shows that compound (1) possesses a 3D framework, which is built up of Anderson polyoxoanions, organic cations and water molecules; the extensive net hydrogen bonds between cations and anions contribute to the crystal packing. Furthermore, the luminescent property of (1) in the solid state was investigated.
