Abstract
Porous metal oxide materials have been obtained from a ring-shaped macrocyclic polyoxometalate (POM) structural building unit, [P8W48O184]40-. This is a tungsten oxide building block with an integrated "pore" of 1 nm in diameter, which, when connected with transition metal linkers, can assemble frameworks across a range of dimensions and which are generally referred to as POMzites. Our investigation proposes to gain a better understanding into the basic chemistry of this POM, specifically local electron densities and locations of countercations within and without the aforementioned pore. Through a rigorous benchmarking process, we discovered that 8 potassium cations, located within the pore, provided us with the most accurate model in terms of mimicking empirical properties to a sufficient degree of accuracy while also requiring a relatively small number of computer cores and hours to successfully complete a calculation. Additionally, we analyzed two other similar POMs from the literature, [As8W48O184]40- and [Se8W48O176]32-, in the hopes of determining whether they could be similarly incorporated into a POMzite network; given their close semblance in terms of local electron densities and interaction with potassium cations, we judge these POMs to be theoretically suitable as POMzite building blocks. Finally, we experimented with substituting different cations into the [P8W48O184]40- pore to observe the effect on pore dimensions and overall reactivity; we observed that the monocationic structures, particularly the Li8[P8W48O184]32- framework, yielded the least polarized structures. This correlates with the literature, validating our methodology for determining general POM characteristics and properties moving forward.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new class of hybrid Wells-Dawson polyoxometalate (POM) containing a diphosphoryl group (P2 O6 X) of the general formula [P2 W17 O57 (P2 O6 X)]6- (X=O, NH, or CR1 R2 ). Modifying the bridging unit X was found to impact the redox potentials of the POM. The ease with which a range of α-functionalized diphosphonic acids (X=CR1 R2 ) can be prepared provides possibilities to access diverse functionalized hybrid POMs. Compared to existing phosphonate hybrid Wells-Dawson POMs, diphosphoryl-substituted POMs offer a wider tunable redox window and enhanced hydrolytic stability. This study provides a basis for the rational design and synthesis of next-generation hybrid Wells-Dawson POMs.

Abstract
![]()
The
mixed molybdenum/tungsten Keggin-type polyoxometalate (POM)
hybrid (TBA)4[PW9Mo2O39{Sn(C6H4I)}] (TBA = tert-butylammonium)
has been prepared by the reaction between [α-PW9Mo2O39]7– and [Cl3Sn(C6H4I)] in dried acetonitrile, in the presence of
tetra-n-butylammonium bromide. A further coupling
reaction affords the ferrocenyl derivative (TBA)4[PW9Mo2O39{Sn(C6H4)C≡C(C6H4)Fc}]. The POM hybrids have
been thoroughly characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopies. Electrochemical
analysis confirms their ease of reduction compared to the all-W analogue,
albeit with a second reduction process occurring at a lower potential
than in the all-Mo species. It is noteworthy that the second reduction
is accompanied by an unusual red shift of the electronic absorption
spectrum. Whereas there is no doubt that the first reduction deals
with Mo, the location of the second electron in the bireduced species,
on the second Mo or on W, has thus been the subject of a cross-investigation
by spectroelectrochemistry, electron spin resonance, and theoretical
calculations. Finally, it came out that the second reduction is also
Mo-centered with two unpaired and antiferromagnetically coupled extra
electrons. The sites for the successive reduction
processes of a mixed
molybdenum/tungsten Keggin-type organotin hybrid are debated through
a combination of spectroelectrochemical investigations and theoretical
calculations.
