Abstract

A new polyoxomolybdate (C6H6)4[H4GeMo12O40]·1.5H2O (1) has been isolated under hydrothermal condition and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and thermal stability. Single crystal X-ray structure analysis revealed that 1 crystallized in monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 10.9070(8) A, b = 20.9582(11) A, c = 11.4607(8) A, β = 109.983(4)o, V = 2,462.1(3) A3, Z = 2. The most significant feature of 1 is that the benzene rings are derived from the bis(carboxyethylgermanium) sesquoxide (H2E2Ge2O3) ligands via in situ reaction. A new polyoxomolybdate (C6H6)4[H4GeMo12O40].1.5H2O (1) has been obtained from in situ reaction by using H2E2Ge2O3 ligands in the presence of molybdates. The formation of compound 1 involves the in situ reaction occurred in H2E2Ge2O3 ligand in the presence of molybdates via the doubly dehydrogenative coupling reaction.
