N. Okabe, N. Isomoto and M. Odoko

Abstract: The title compound, diaquadi-₂-oxo-dioxobis(pyridine-2-carboxylato-O,N)molybdenum(V) monohydrate, [Mo₂O₂(C₆H₄NO₂)₂(H₂O)₂]·H₂O, is a dinuclear complex which consists of two Mo^V atoms connected together by a metal-metal single bond and two bridging oxo groups. Each Mo^V atom has a distorted octahedral geometry and is coordinated by three oxo groups, one O atom of the water molecule, and the O and N atoms of one picolinate anion.
