The structure of the title complex, [Mo2O4(C2HF2O2)(2)(C10H8N2)(2)]. 2H(2)O, is reported. The structure consists of the Mo2O4 core, with each metal center bonded to terminal and bridging oxo ligands, a monodentate difluoroacetate ligand and a chelating 2,2'-bipyridine group. The water molecules are each hydrogen bonded to a terminal oxo ligand and a difluoroacetate carbonyl group. The product, a result of accidental air oxidation, is similar in structure to other Mo2O4 complexes with similar ligation.
