Abstract

A polyoxomolybdate, [Cu 2(pz)(Mo 3O 10)] n (pz=pyrazine) (1), has been synthesized hydrothermally and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, X-ray photoelectron spectra, and thermogravimetric analysis. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction demonstrates that 1 has a 3-D architecture constructed by combination of {Mo 3O 10} units and [Cu 2(pz)] 2+. All the terminal oxygen atoms of the polyoxomolybdate are coordinated by univalent copper. Pyrazine came from in situ decarboxylation of 2-pyrazinecarboxylic acid and Cu + from the in situ reduction of Cu 2+ during the hydrothermal synthesis.
