Abstract:The octahedron-shaped three-shell structure of the [(Ln14(H2O)W4(OH)O14)(WO4)4(GeW10O38)6]43− polyanion contains a W4 tetrahedron, a Ln14W4 tetrahedron and a Ge6W60 octahedron.
“…Polyoxometalates (POMs) have attracted considerable research interest due to their structural diversity and potential applications in medicine, catalysis, materials science, photochemistry, molecular magnetism, and so forth. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The versatile lacunary POM fragments generated by removing one or more skeletal MO 6 groups can serve as multidentate O-donor inorganic ligands to construct mono-or multinuclear transition-metal-substituted polyoxometalates (TMSPs). [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Currently, the design and preparation of highnuclearity TMSPs remain one of the most interesting topics in synthetic chemistry.…”
A novel mixed-valence, ring-shaped multinuclear Mn-containing polyoxometalate, [H 2 N(CH 3 ) 2 ] 15 NaH 8 -[Mn III 3 Mn IV (μ 3 -O) 3 (OAc)PO 4 (B-α-PW 9 O 34 )] 4 • 36H 2 O (1) was made and systematically characterized using various spectroscopic and computational techniques. Its polyoxoanion can be described as a tetramer made of four [Mn III 3 Mn IV (μ 3 -O) 3 (OAc) (B-α-PW 9 O 34 )] 3− ({Mn III 3 Mn IV (PW 9 )}) clusters and four PO 4 linkers. Significantly, this structurally new complex 1 can efficiently catalyze hydrogen evolution with 23 μmol H 2 gas after 12 h of visible-light irradiation using a three-component system. We propose a possible catalytic hydrogenevolving mechanism based on both experimental results and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

“…Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) containing polyoxometalates have caught the increasing attention of researchers due to their novel structural characteristics and applications in catalysis [5], magnetism [6], antibacterial drugs [7], and so on. The title compound is synthesized under hydrothermal condition and its asymmetric unit contains a Strandberg-type anion, four protonated-benzimidazole counter cations and two water molecules (see the Figure).…”
“…On one hand, RE ions generally have the high coordination numbers, flexible coordination modes and strong oxophilicity and can behave as powerful capabilities to connect ST fragments into large aggregates –. For instance, in 2013, Su and his co‐workers firstly isolated two gigantic {W 4 }‐bridging octameric RECSTs [{(SeO 3 ) W 10 O 34 } 8 {Ce 8 (H 2 O) 20 }(WO 2 ) 4 (W 4 O 12 )] 48− and [{(SeO 3 )W 10 O 34 } 8 {Ce 8 (H 2 O) 20 }(WO 2 ) 4 {(W 4 O 6 )Ce 4 (H 2 O) 14 (SeO 3 ) 4 (NO 3 ) 2 }] 34− .…”
A family of penta‐rare‐earth incorporated tetravacant Dawson selenotungstates [H2N(CH3)2]10H3[SeO4RE5(H2O)7(Se2W14O52)2] ⋅ 40H2O [RE=Ho3+ (1), Er3+ (2), Tm3+ (3), Tb3+ (4)] were synthesized. It should be noted that a penta‐RE [SeO4RE5(H2O)7]11+ central core connecting two tetra‐vacant Dawson‐type [Se2W14O52]12− subunits generates a dimeric assembly of [SeO4RE5 (H2O)7(Se2W14O52)2]13− in the structures of 1–4. Meanwhile, a class of Ho3+/Tm3+ co‐doped derivatives based on 1 with a Ho3+/Tm3+ molar ratio of 0.75:0.25–0.25:0.75 were also prepared and characterized by energy‐dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analyses. Moreover, their luminescence properties were systematically investigated, which indicate that Tm3+ ions can sensitize the emission of Ho3+ ions in the visible region and prolong the fluorescence lifetime of Ho3+ ions to some extent. Energy transfer from Tm3+ ions to Ho3+ ions was probed by time‐resolved emission spectroscopy (TRES), and the CIE 1931 diagram has been applied to evaluate all possible luminescence colors.
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.
