Abstract
The novel amino-acid-containing polyoxometalate Ka(6) [Cu(Ala)(2) (H2O)(2)] (2) [Cu-4 (H2O)(2) . (AsW9O34)(2)] . 16H(2)O was synthesized from the react ion of K-10[Cu-4(H2O)(2)(AsW9O34)(2)] . 20H(2)O with beta -alanine, Its str ucture has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystall izes in the triclinic space group P (1) over bar, with a=1. 196 3(2) nm, b= 1. 536 5(3) nm, c=1. 591 4(3) nm, alpha =93. 97(3)degrees, beta= 110. 88(3) degrees, gamma =101. 07(3)degrees, V=2. 651 8(9) nm(3) and Z=1. Least-squar es refinement of the structure leads to R and R-w factors of 0. 067 3 and 0 . 162 8, respectively. An unusual structural feature of the compound is tha t the polyanion [Cu-4(H2O)(2) (AsW9O34)](10-) is linked with the amino-acid complex of Cu2+ by a mu -oxygen atom.
