  • Single-crystal X-ray diffraction for detailed structural determination.

    • Main Results:

    • Successful synthesis and characterization of the novel heteropolymolybdate, [(O(2)CCH(2)PO(3))(2)Mo(5)O(15)](6-).
    • X-ray analysis revealed a unique structure with a ring of five MoO(6) octahedra stabilized by phosphonocarboxylate ligands.
    • The nonplanar polyanion structure, with protruding carboxylate groups, was confirmed to be stable in solution via NMR.
    • An isostructural derivative was also synthesized and characterized.

    Conclusions:

    • A novel functionalized heteropolymolybdate with a unique structural architecture has been synthesized.
    • The phosphonocarboxylate groups play a crucial role in stabilizing the polyanion's nonplanar ring structure.
    • The observed structural integrity in both solid-state and solution highlights the robustness of this new class of compounds.
