Abstract: A Hydrothermal reaction of MoO3, NiCl2·6H2O, WO3 and H2O with a molar ratio of 1:0.6:1:83.3 gives a rhombic-shaped black crystal [NiMo12O40H10{Ni(H2O)3}4]. It crystallizes in a tetragonal system with space group I41/amd and unit cell parameters a=b=1.518 4(2) nm, c=3.082 9(6) nm, Z=4, V=7.108(2) nm3, R=0.067 1, wR=0.217 8. The compound possesses a four-capped Keggin structure. The structure of the Keggin-[NiMo12O40H10]8- consists of twelve MoO6 octahedrons and a NiO4 tetrahedron on the center. Four [Ni(H2O)3]2+ at the cap positions are linked to Keggin-structure by three μ 3-O, respectively. The calculation of bond valence shows that the oxidation state of Mo in the compound is +5.

Key words: Molybdenum-nickel-oxo cluster, Four-capped Keggin structure, Hydrothermal synthesis
