Bis(dicyclohexylammonium) tungstate dihydrate, [NH2(C6H11)2]2[WO4]·2H2O
Abstract
The crystal structure of the title complex is built of dicyclohexylammonium cations, [NH2(C6H11)2]+, orthotungstate dianions, [WO4]2−, and lattice water molecules. The cations and coordinated water molecules occupy special positions on twofold axes; the tetrahedral orthotungstate dianion is located on a axis. Hydrogen bonds involving all N- and O-bound H atoms link the cations, anions and water molecules into an infinite three-dimensional aggregate. The crystal is isostructural with its molybdenum analog [Thiele & Fuchs (1979). Z. Naturforsch. Teil B, 34, 145–154].
