Poly[(μ-β-hexa-cosa-oxidoocta-molybdato)tetra-kis-[3-(2-pyrid-yl)pyrazole]-dizinc(II)].

ABSTRACT: In the hydro-thermally prepared title compound, [Mo(8)Zn(2)O(26)(C(8)H(7)N(3))(4)](n) or {[Zn(C(8)H(7)N(3))(2)](2)(Mo(8)O(26))}(n), the Zn(II) atom is coordinated by two N,N'-bidentate 3-(2-pyrid-yl)pyrazole ligands and two O atoms from adjacent octa-molybdate polyanions, generating a distorted cis-ZnO(2)N(4) octa-hedral geometry for the divalent metal ion. The complete octa-molbydate unit is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry. The polyhedral connectivity leads to [100] chains in the crystal and N-H⋯O and N-H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds help to consolidate the packing.
