Hexakis(2-aminopyridinium) di-μ6-oxido-tetra-μ3-oxido-tetradeca-μ2-oxido-octaoxidodecavanadium(V) dihydrate

Abstract

In the title compound, (C5H7N2)6[V10O28]·2H2O, the [V10O28]6− anion is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry and each of the five vanadium centres adopts a distorted VO6 octahedral geometry. In the crystal structure, a network of N—H...O, N—H...(O,O) and O—H...O hydrogen bonds helps to establish the packing.
