The anion of the title salt, (C3H5N2)4[Mo8O26(C3H4N2)2]·H2O, is a centrosymmetric Mo8O26 species in which two Mo atoms are each coordinated by an imidazole heterocycle. The anion is made up of two MoNO5 and six MoO6 edge-sharing octa­hedra. The cations inter­act with the tetra­anion to give rise to a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network. The asymmetric unit features three cations, two of which lie on centers of inversion; the solvent water mol­ecule is disordered with respect to one of these two cations.

Comment top

The tetraanion of the title salt, tetrakis(imidazolium) bis(imidazole)-octamolybdate monohydrate, was previously identified as tetrakis(dimethylammonium) bis(imidazole)-octamolybdate trihydrate (Martían-Zarza et al., 1993). The anion is made up of two MoNO5 and six MoO6 edge-sharing octahedra as two of the molybdenum atoms are coordinated by the neutral N-heterocycles. In the present salt, two of the three cations of the asymmetric unit are disordered over different centers-of-inversion. The cations and tetraanion interact through hydrogen bonds to give rise to a three-dimensional network.

Experimental top

Sodium molybdate dihydrate, Na2MoO4.2H2O (0.65 g, 2.7 mmol) and ammonium acetate (0.15 g, 2 mmol) were dissolved in 30 ml water. Imidazole (0.10 g, 1.5 mmol) was added and the pH of the mixture adjusted to about 3.8 by the addition of acetic acid. The solution was heated at 333 K for about 12 h. It was then set aside for the growth of faint yellow crystals.

Refinement top

Two imidazolium cations are disordered about centers-of-inversion. For these two five-membered rings, the 1,2-related distances were restrained to 1.35±0.01 Å and the 1,3-related ones to 2.18±0.01 Å. The rings were also restrained to be almost planar. The rings are necessarily of half-occupancy only; one of the rings is also disordered with respect to a water molecule. (The presence of water in the compound was confirmed by an infrared spectrum.) The O1w atom occupies the same position as the N5 atom of the ring; the temperature factors of the two atoms were restrained to be identical. Additionally, the anisotropic displacement parameters of all disordered atoms were restrained to be nearly isotropic.

The carbon- and nitrogen-boud hydrogen atoms were placed at calculated positions (C–H 0.95 and N–H 0.86 Å), and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2 times Ueq(C,N). The hydrogen atoms of the half-occupancy water molecule were placed in chemically sensible positions on the basis of hydrogen bonds but were not refined; their temperature factors were set to 1.5 times Ueq(O).

The tetraanion lies about a center-of-inversion, and the unlabeled atoms are related to the labeled ones by (i = 2 – x, 1 – y, 1 – z). The water molecule is disordered with respect to one of the disordered cations that lie on an inversion site; the symmetry-related equivalent is shown (and labeled with an ii superscript).
