Study on novel structure of molybdenum 2-aminopyridine complex: (C5H7N2)2(Mo7O24)(H2O)4

A new molybdenum 2-aminopyridine complex (C5H7N2)(2)(Mo7O24)(H2O)(4) is prepared by a hydrothermal reaction and the crystal structure has been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Mo atom is coordinated by six O atoms. The crystal packing is stabilized by O-H center dot center dot center dot O and O-H center dot center dot center dot N hydrogen bonding interaction.
