Abstract

(MoO3)4N2(NO)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two ammonia molecules, two nitroxyl molecules, and one MoO3 cluster. In the MoO3 cluster, there are two inequivalent Mo6+ sites. In the first Mo6+ site, Mo6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing MoO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Mo–O bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.93 Å. In the second Mo6+ site, Mo6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing MoO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Mo–O bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.93 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Mo6+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Mo6+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo6+ atom.
