Reduced molybdophosphate-based supramolecular compounds, such as (4,4 0 -H 2 bipy)[Co(H 2 O) 2 ] 2 [Co-(H 2 PO 4 ) 2 (HPO 4 ) 4 (PO 4 ) 2 (MoO 2 ) 12 (OH) 6 ] Á 17H 2 O (1), [Co-(2,2 0 -bipy) 2 (H 2 O)] 4 [Co(H 2 O) 2 ][Co(HPO 4 ) 6 (PO 4 ) 2 (MoO 2 ) 12 -(OH) 6 ] Á 2H 2 O (2), and [Co(2,2 0 -bipy) 2 (H 2 O)] 4 [Co(H 2 PO 4(3) (4,4 0 -bipy=4,4 0 -bipyridine, 2,2 0 -bipy=2,2 0 -bipyridine), have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized. Compound 1 exhibits a three-dimensional supramolecular twofold interpenetrating architecture built up of one-dimensional [P 4 Mo 6 ]-based infinite covalent chains and free 4,4 0 -bipy molecules. Compound 2 also shows a three-dimensional supramolecular network constructed from one-dimensional covalent [P 4 Mo 6 ]-based chains. Unlike compounds 1 and 2, compound 3 exhibits an interesting three-dimensional 'honeycomb-like' supramolecular network constructed by the stacking of [Co(2,2 0bipy) 2 (H 2 O)] units with one-dimensional channels, in which the [P 4 Mo 6 ]-based polyoxometalate chains are located. The magnetic properties of compounds 2 and 3 are reported.Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (
