Abstract

The (3 + 1)-dimensional modulated crystal structure of the metal-rich cluster compound InMo4O6 was solved and refined from single-crystal data in the superspace group P4/mbm(00γ)00ss [q = 0, 0, 0.1536 (4); a = 9.6664 (9), c = 2.8645 (3) Å; R1(all) = 0.046, wR(all) = 0.076]. The crystal structure is closely related to the NaMo4O6 structure type. It is built from rods of Mo6 clusters condensed via trans edges. These form channels parallel to [001], in which In6 and In7 oligomers alternate. Weak diffuse planes parallel to (001)* interconnect the satellite reflections; they occur due to two-dimensional rod disorder of the In oligomer chains.
