Crystal structure of an organic–inorganic supra­molecular salt based on a 4,4′-methyl­enebis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-2-ium) cation and a β-octa­molybdate anion

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, bis­[4,4′-methyl­enebis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-2-ium)] β-octa­molybdate, (C(11)H(18)N(4))(2)[Mo(8)O(26)] or (H(4)mbdpz)(2)[Mo(8)O(26)], is composed of an H(4)mbdpz(2+) cation and half of the β-octa­molybdate anion which is completed by inversion symmetry. The organic mol­ecular units are engaged in a series of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with neighbouring anions, with N⋯O distances and N—H⋯O angles in the ranges 2.730 (2)–2.941 (2) Å and 122–166°, respectively. These inter­actions lead to the formation of a supra­molecular two-dimensional network parallel to the (010) plane.
