Abstract
Single crystals of nanocomposite [GaO4Al12(OH)24 (H2O)12][Al(OH)6Mo6 O18]2(OH)·30H2O, 2, were obtained by the reaction between [GaO4Al12(OH)24(H2 O)12]7+ and [Mo7O24]6- clusters in an aqueous solution, analogously to the [AlO4Al12(OH)24(H2O)12] [Al(OH)6Mo6O18]2(OH) ·29.5H2O nanocomposite, 1. The crystal structure of 2 was determined by single crystal x-ray diffraction; space group C2/c (No. 15), a = 27.418(2) Å, b = 15.647(2) Å, c = 23.960(4) Å, β = 102.850(9)°, V = 10,021.5(20) Å3, Z = 4. Detailed analysis of the structural data show that the clusters are held by intimate hydrogen bondings of the surface O2- and OH- groups of the clusters as well as the ionic interactions between the oppositely charged cluster ions.
