Abstract

The crystal structure of the product of the reaction between [(−)Co(en)3]I3 and a mixture of Na2MoO4 and NaHC2O4 in aqueous solution is reported: [(−)Co(en)3][MoO3(C2O4)OH2]I·2H2O, space groupP212121,a=8.131(2),b=14.590(4),c=17.509(4) Å;Z=4. FinalR=0.048,R w=0.050,w=(σ 2 F)−1 for 1899 reflections. The configuration of the Mo(VI) oxalate complex differs notably from that proposed previously on the basis of chemical analysis and equilibrium studies.
