New framework materials composed of well-defined vanadium oxide clusters were prepared by low-temperature reactions and characterized by X-ray crystal structure analysis. The structures of these solids contain {V O } cages linked into two interpenetrating three-dimensional networks by bridging {M(H O) } groups (M=Fe , Co ; see picture).
The synthesis and characterization of the novel systems [Zn(2)(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(5)][(Zn(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(2))(2)V(18)O(42)(H(2)O)].9H(2)O (1), [Cd(2)(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(5)][(Cd(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(2))(2)V(18)O(42)(Br)].9H(2)O (2), and [Zn(2)(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(5)][(Zn(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(2))(2)V(18)O(42)(Cl)].9H(2)O (3) have been described. These materials represent a new class of solids that have been prepared by combining conventional coordination compounds with spherical polyoxovanadate clusters. The isomorphous structures of these hybrid solids consist of two-dimensional arrays of container cluster molecules [V(18)O(42)(X)] (X = H(2)O, Br-, Cl-) interlinked by the transition metal complex moieties [M(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(2)] (M = Zn, Cd). These compounds contain an unprecedented complex cation, [M(2)(H(2)N(CH(2))(2)NH(2))(5)](4+).

A novel mixed-metal oxide solid [H6Mn3VIV
15VV
4O46(H2O)12]·30H2O (1) has been synthesized and characterized. The structure of the mixed-valence compound consists of three-dimensional arrays of “spheres” of {V19O46}, each one linked by six μ2-{Mn(H2O)4} bridges to six neighboring {V19O46} units, generating a complex 3-D framework. The structure contains cavities occupied by readily removable lattice water.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
