Abstract
Self-assembled synthesis of three new organic/inorganic hybrid solids (1−3) in the presence of isomeric phenylenediammonium ions (p-, m-, and o-) demonstrates the role of nonbonding interactions in the construction of phosphomolybdate-based solid-state assemblies. In 1, crystal packing is dominated by two kinds of supramolecular assemblies: an unusual pentadecameric water cluster linked through p-phenylenediammonium (ppda) cations and a hydrogen-bonded assembly of a ppda cation with four phosphomolybdate anions. In 2, a pair of m-phenylenediammonium (mpda) cations linked through π···π interactions envelops a phosphomolybdate anion from either side through hydrogen bonding mediated by water molecules forming butterfly-like supramolecular motifs. In 3, a new kind of O−W−O−W (organic−water) linker formed by alternate hydrogen bonding between o-phenylenediammonium (opda) and water molecules; such motifs are well decorated around a pentamolybdate cluster anion leading to the formation of the three-dimensional...
