Dihydroxy(dioxo)molybdenum diammoniate(CAS: 13106-76-8)

Dihydroxy(dioxo)molybdenum diammoniate is a molybdenum-based inorganic compound with the chemical formula (NH4)2[MoO2(OH)2]. It is a white crystalline solid commonly used as a source of molybdenum in various chemical applications. The compound is known for its stability and reactivity in aqueous solutions, and it serves as a precursor for other molybdenum compounds.

Dihydroxy(dioxo)molybdenum diammoniate is primarily used in the pharmaceutical industry as a molybdenum supplement and in the synthesis of molybdenum-containing drugs. It also finds applications in industrial catalysis, water treatment, and as a reagent in research for studying molybdenum chemistry. Its use in food additives is limited but may occur in trace amounts as a nutritional supplement.

Dihydroxy(dioxo)molybdenum diammoniate is generally considered safe when handled properly. However, as with many inorganic compounds, it should be treated with care to avoid inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. Safety data sheets recommend using protective gloves, goggles, and ventilation. It is not classified as highly toxic but should be stored and handled in accordance with standard chemical safety protocols.

Dihydroxy(dioxo)molybdenum diammoniate should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from moisture and direct light. It is typically kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent exposure to air and humidity. The compound is stable under normal storage conditions but may degrade if exposed to extreme temperatures or prolonged light exposure.
