Complexation and Isomerization of [β-Mo8O26]4− in the Presence of Ag+ and DMF

Abstract

In the work, we describe the synthesis of five novel complexes based on the octamolybdate anion, the Ag+ cation, and organic ligands: (Bu4N)8[Mo8O26Ag2(DMF)3.6(N2S3C4H6)0.2]2[Mo8O26Ag2(DMF)(N2S3C4H6)]2(1), (Bu4N)4[Mo8O26Ag2(DMF)4][Mo8O26Ag2(DMF)2] (2), (Bu4N)3[Mo8O26Ag2(NO3)(DMF)] (3), (Bu4N)4× ×[α-Mo8O26]·1,4DMF (4), and (Bu4N)4 [α-Mo8O26]·2DMF (5). All compounds are characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and the elemental analysis.
