Manganese(II) molybdate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula MnMoO4. α-MnMoO4 has a monoclinic crystal structure.[2] It is also antiferromagnetic at low temperatures.[3]

Synthesis

Manganese(II) molybdate can be prepared through a double displacement reaction between sodium molybdate and manganese sulphate:[1]

Na2MoO4 + MnSO4 → Na2SO4 + MnMoO4

Manganese(II) molybdate has minimal solubility in water and will form a white-yellow precipitate which turns beige upon being refluxed.[1] The precipitate can then be filtered from solution, which gives the monohydrate (MnMoO4·H2O); heating to 360 °C then provides the anhydrous salt.[1]

Manganese(II) molybdate may also be prepared by heating various manganese oxides and molybdenum trioxide to 700 °C.[4]

Applications

MnMoO4 has been used as active material in electrodes for aqueous supercapacitors[2][5] due to fast pseudocapacitive redox reactions, and as catalyst for hydrogen evolution.[5]
