Abstract

A new organically templated molybdenum oxides compound Zn2(bpe)Mo2O8 (bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane) has been hydrothermal synthesized and characterized by single X-ray analysis, element analysis, IR spectroscopy, TG analysis, diffuse reflectance UV–Vis spectra. Compound 1 shows a three-dimensional net-like structure, where the bimetallic oxide layers {ZnMoO4} were knitted together with the bpe ligands. The optical band gap for 1 was 2.5 eV, which is comparable to that of TiO2. Moreover, the photoluminescent properties of 1 have been investigated at room temperature.
