Abstract: Anew molybdenum-citrato cluster containing [Mo2O2( μ-S)2(C6H5O7)(C6H4O7)]5- anion was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis spectra, XPS and X-ray diffraction. The parameters of the crystal structure of the compound are monoclinic, space group P21/c, a =2.3766(5) nm, b =1.3274(3) nm, c =2.2471(5) nm, β =118.21°, V =6.247(2) nm3, Z=8, Dc=2.128 g/cm3, F(000)=3984, μ =1694 cm-1 , R=0.0831 and R2,w=0.1549. The anion is binuclear molybdenum citrato complex with μ2-S bridge. Each molybdenum atom pocesesses a distorted octahedral struture, which is coordinated with a terminal oxygen, two sulfur atoms, three oxygen atoms of hydroxyl, α-carboxylate, β-carboxylate from citrate.

Key words: Nitrogenase, Citric acid, Synthesis, Crystal structure, Binuclear molybdenum cluster with μ2-S bridge
