Abstract
During the course of our extensive studies on the molybdenum-tert-buty lamine base system, we isolated the title compound, [C4H12N](2)[MoO4], by reaction of stoichiometric amounts of MoO3 and ter t-butylamine in aqueous media. The asymmetric unit of di-tert-butylammonium molybdate (VI) consists of two tetrahedral [MoO4](2-) anions and four tert-butyl ammonium cations. The crystal packing is stabilized by the electrostat ic interactions and an extensive network of hydrogen contacts involvin g the O atoms from the anions, and the N atoms and some C atoms of the cations.
