New compounds based on polyoxometalates and transition metal complexes with a lower positive charge

Four new hybrid compounds based on Keggin polyoxometallates and transition metal complexes, [Cu(phen)2]4[GeW12O40] (1), [Cu(bpy)(phen)]2[Cu(bpy)2]3[BW12O40] (2), [Cu(bpy)(phen)][Cu(bpy)2]3[SiW12O40] (3) and [Cu(bpy)2]4[GeW12O40] (4) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine), have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by IR spectra, UV–Vis, XPS, XRD and single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Compounds 1, 2, 3 and 4 are new examples of hybrids based on polyoxometallates and transition metal complexes with a lower positive charge.

Four new compounds have been synthesized and characterized. Structure analyses revealed that the four compounds are new examples of hybrids based on polyoxometalates and transition metal complexes with a lower positive charge.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
