Sb₂MoO₆, a Re-examination

Single crystals of diantimony molybdenum hexaoxide have been grown by solid-state reaction. This oxide crystallizes as a layered structure as in the case of the previously reported Sb₂WO₆. Mo atoms are located in severely distorted O-atom octahedra while Sb atoms are bonded to five O atoms, three at short distances and two at longer distances, retaining the three-dimensional array.
