    • Abstract

       

      Their and Raman spectra of molybdenum trioxide—monohydrate are studied assuming an effective tetrahedral Mo-O coordination and isolated water molecules, although the crystallographic coordination is six-fold with two long Mo-O distances. Based onCt symmetry, the group theoretical analysis has been carried out and a vibrational assignment is proposed. The nature of hydrogen bonding and the librational modes of water molecules are discussed. The factor group splitting forv3, the asymmetric stretching mode of MoO4= ion, is large indicating strong interchain coupling.
