Abstract: In the title compound, catena-poly[[bis(1,10-phenanthroline)cadmium(II)]--tetraoxomolybdato], {[CdMoO₄(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂]·H₂O}_n, the Cd^II ion has a distorted octahedral geometry, defined by four N atoms of two chelating phen (phenanthroline) ligands and two O atoms from two MoO₄ tetrahedra. The Mo^VI atom has a distorted tetrahedral geometry, defined by two terminal O atoms and two bridging (to Cd) O atoms. The compound exhibits a one-dimensional corrugated chain structure, and is further extended into a three-dimensional inorganic-organic hybrid compound via hydrogen-bonding and weaker - bonding interactions.
