A new pseudo Keggin-type bicapped compound(Et3N)0.5(en)2[SiMo12O40(VO)2]·4H2O(Et3N=triethylamine,en=ethylenediamine) has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by IR,elemental analysis,TG and X-ray crystallography.The title compound crystallizes in monoclinic,space group P21/n with a=17.576(2),b=13.535(1),c=21.587(2),β=103.790(10)°,V=4987.3(8)3,Z=4,Dc=2.925 Mg/m3,Mr=2196.12,F(000)=4148,μ=3.400 mm-1,R=0.0379 and wR=0.1219.The most remarkable structural feature of the compound is that the clusters represent bicapped pseudo-Keggin structure and are linked one by one through V-O-V bonds forming an infinite 1D chain.Furthermore,such chains are interconnected in a cross-like arrangement through multiform hydrogen bonds to yield a 3D supramolecular network.
A new compound has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by IR,elemental analysis,XPS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The title compound [Mn(en)3]2en0.5[HV16O38(Cl)]·4.5H2O crystallizes in monoclinic,space group C2/c,with a=17.016(4),b=18.858(4),c=18.872(4),β=93.667(4)o,V=6043(2)3,Z=4,Dc=2.242 g/cm3,Mr=2040.12,F(000)=4020,μ=2.895 mm-1,Rint=0.0921,R=0.0649 and wR=0.1325. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis indicates that the title compound consists of a polyanion [HV8VV8IVO38(Cl)]4-cage,two [Mn(en)3]22+ cations,four and a half lattice waters and a half ethylenediamine. In addition,intermolecular O-H···N,O-H···O,N-H···O and C-H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules together to form a three-dimensional structure.
