A new one-dimensional copper–molybdenum bimetallic compound [Cu(2-PBIM)MoO4] (1) (2-PBIM = 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole) has been hydrothermally synthesized. X-ray structure analysis has revealed that compound 1 contains left-handed and right-handed helical chains, which are built up from copper–molybdenum bimetallic oxide building block and further interconnected to form the ladder-shaped chains through μ2-O. The ladder-shaped chains are integrated via hydrogen bonding to form a 3D framework with channels in it.
