Abstract

The title compound, [(C2H5)4N][Mo3Cl6O(C2H3O2)3], has been synthesized by the reaction of MoCl3·3H2O with CH3COOH. The structure is a polymorph of the structure reported by Chen, Lu, Huang, Huang & Huang [Chin. J. Struct. Chem. (1993). 12, 117–123]. The crystal contains discrete cations and anions. The mono-oxo-capped trinuclear Mo cluster anion consists of three Cl atoms and three acetate groups that bridge the three edges of the Mo triangle; each Mo atom is also coordinated by one terminal Cl atom. The coordination around Mo is a distorted octahedron.
