Abstract
The well-known polyoxomolybdate anion [Mo8O26]4− has been used as a noncoordinating anionic template for the construction of a novel three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular network, [Co(phen)3]2[Mo8O26]· 2.5H2O (1) (phen = o-phenanthroline). Compound 1 has been characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectrum, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), TG analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that [Co(phen)3]2+ coordination complexes are packed together via aromatic π–π stacking and hydrogen-bonding interactions, and exhibit an interesting 3D supramolecular network with one-dimensional (1D) box-like channels in which the octamolybdate anions reside.
