Recently, a new structure Y(4626) was reported by the Belle Collaboration in the process . In this work, we propose an assignment of the Y(4626) as a
molecular state, which decays into the
channel through a coupling between
and
channels. With the help of the heavy quark symmetry, the potential of the interaction
is constructed within the one-boson-exchange model, and inserted into the quasipotential Bethe–Salpeter equation. The pole of obtained scattering amplitude is searched for in the complex-energy plane, which corresponds to a molecular state from the interaction
. The results suggest that a pole is produced near the
threshold, which exhibits as a peak in the invariant mass spectrum of the
channel at about 4626 MeV. It obviously favors the Y(4626) as a
molecular state. In the same model, other molecular states from the interaction
are also predicted, which can be checked in future experiments.
