Abstract

The structure of the complex [La(H2O)(7)Al(OH)(6)Mo6O18](n). 4nH(2)O is the first example of a 1D extended chain in which an Anderson type heteropolyanion is linked by rare earth metal ions in zig-zag chains that arrange "head to tail" in the structure; furthermore the chains are themselves linked into an extensive three-dimensional hydrogen bonded network.
