Abstract

An organic–inorganic hybrid compound constructed from a Keggin‐type molybdophosphate polyoxoanion, a CuI coordination cation and a protonated 1,10‐phenanthroline subunit, namely 1,10‐phenanthrolinium bis­(1,10‐phenanthroline)­copper(I) dodeca­molybdophosphate, (C12H10N2)[Cu(C12H8N2)2][PMo12O40] or (H2phen)[Cu(phen)2][PMo12O40], has been prepared under hydro­thermal conditions and structurally characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The polyoxoanion is constructed from a central PO4 tetra­hedron which shares its O atoms with four {Mo3O16} trinuclear groups, each of which is made up of three edge‐sharing {MoO6} octa­hedra. In the [Cu(phen)2]+ counter‐cation, the Cu atom is coordinated by four N atoms from two 1,10‐phenanthroline ligands.
