Determination of the crystal structure of Mo2vP4O15

The structure of a molybdenum tetraphosphate Mo 2 P 4 O 15 has been determined from X-ray single crystal study in the monoclinic space group P2 1 /c (a = 8.3068(8), b = 6.5262(6), c = 10.718(1) A, β = 106.70(1)°). Its structure consists of MoO 6 octahedra sharing five of their corners with P 4 O 13 tetraphosphate groups, the sixth one being free corresponds to a molybdenyl group
