Summary
The complexes obtained by crystallisation from an aqueous solution of molybdate and citric acid (H4cit) at pH 4–8 have Mo:cit ratio 1∶1. The new complexes have been characterised by a variety of methods in the solid state and in solution. On this basis two dimeric species, [(MoO2)2O(citH)2]4− and [(MoO2)2O(cit)2]6−, and a monomeric species [MoO3(cit)OH2]4− are proposed.
