Surface plasmon resonance research on photoinduced switch properties of liquid crystalline azobenzene polymer Langmuir–Blodgett films

We report a novel phenomenon of photoisomerization-induced switch properties in liquid crystalline azo-benzene polymer poly{2-hydroetheyl methacrylate}-co-{6-[4-(S-2-methyl-1-butyloxycarbonylphenylazo) phenoxy]hexyl methacrylate} Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) monolayers. These monolayers were deposited on gold film and irradiated with UV (360 nm) and blue (450 nm) light. The switch properties were investigated by the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique. A method called photoinduced patterning was used for the fabrication of a model molecular device. It has been found that the photoinduced process of writing and erasing in such devices can be repeated for tens of cycles.     

Photoinduced alignment of polymer liquid crystals containing azobenzene moieties in the side group VII. On He-Ne laser beam irradiation

Photoinduced alignment in a polymer liquid crystal prepared from 6-{1-[4-(2-cyano-4-nitrophenylazo)phenyl]piperazino}hexyl acrylate and 4'-[6-(methacryloyloxy)hexyloxy]-4-cyanobiphenyl was investigated for the first time on irradiation with a polarized He-Ne laser beam at 633 nm. The azobenzene moieties as well as the inert cyanobiphenyl mesogenic units were aligned with the molecular long axis perpendicular to the polarization direction of the irradiation light. Alignment induced on short irradiation was reversible, while that induced under prolonged irradiation was irreversible due to the occurrence of crosslinking which might be caused by photoinduced decomposition of the azobenzene moieties during the photoirradiation process.     

Synthesis and characterisation of star-shaped liquid crystalline polymer with a POSS core

The star-shaped POSS-graft-LCP with POSS as the core and liquid crystal polymer, poly{6-(4?-octyloxyphenyl-4″-benzoyl)hexyl acrylate}, as arms was prepared by atom transfer radical polymerisation technique using octa(3-chloropropyl) polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane [POSS-(CH₂CH₂CH₂Cl)₈] as initiator. For comparison, the linear liquid crystal polymer, poly{6-(4?-octyloxyphenyl-4″-benzoyl)hexyl acrylate} (LLCP), was obtained by conventional radical polymerisation. Both liquid crystal polymers were characterised by FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, gel permeation chromatography, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, polarised optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The liquid crystal phase behaviour research demonstrated that both liquid crystal polymers were reversible thermotropic nematic liquid crystal materials. The number of polymerisation degree of every arm attached on POSS in POSS-graft-LCP impacted greatly on the liquid crystal properties and only a small one was necessary for it to exhibit a broad liquid crystal range. Results further demonstrated that the special star-shaped topology of POSS and the eight arms attached helped POSS-graft-LCP form and stabilise liquid crystal phase easily. This research may further expand the way to star-shaped LCPs by employing a variety of (meth)acrylate and other vinyl liquid crystalline monomers.     

聚丙烯酸修饰咔唑的电化学聚合及表征

合成了侧链带有咔唑的N-丙烯酰氧己基咔唑(MACZ),通过自由基聚合得到聚N-丙烯酰氧己基咔唑(PMACZ),在四氢呋喃含10%三氟化硼乙醚与四氟化硼四丁基胺的混合电解质溶液中,直接阳极氧化PMACZ获得自支撑交联网状的聚(聚N-丙烯酰氧己基咔唑)(PPMACZ)薄膜.PPMACZ薄膜具有良好的氧化还原性和热稳定性,电导率为1.34×10-5S·cm-1.1HNMR和红外光谱表明PMACZ二次聚合反应发生在咔唑单元的3,6位上,荧光光谱表明PPMACZ薄膜是一种良好的蓝色发光材料.     

Novel thermochromism relating to supramolecular cuprophilic interaction: design, synthesis, and luminescence of copper(I) pyrazolate trimer and polymer

Solvothermal reactions of 4-(pyrid-4'-yl)-3,5-dimethylpyrazole (HPpz) with CuBr in two mixed solvents, NH3.H2O/EtOH and NH3.H2O/MeCN, afforded respectively a copper(I) trimer, [Cu(Ppz)]3(1), and a polymer, {[Cu(Ppz)]3[CuCN] 3} (2), both containing the [Cu(Ppz)]3 entity as a building block. The products were found to be photoluminescent and, more interestingly, when cooled from room temperature to 10 K, they showed a blue shift followed by a red shift (hereafter shortened to a red-after-blue shift) of emission.     

基于原子转移自由基聚合技术的偶氮苯星形液晶聚合物的合成与表征

2,2'-联吡啶参与的分子梭合成与1H NMR研究

2-{2-[4-苯基-二(4-特丁基苯基)甲基]苯氧基}乙氧乙醇磺酸酯(1)与4,4'-联吡啶在乙腈中回流36 h, 随后通过阴离子交换得到N-{2-{2-[4-苯基-二(4-特丁基苯基)甲基]苯氧基}乙氧乙基}-4,4'-联吡啶六氟磷酸盐(3), 产率为93.4%. 3与4,4'-二(溴甲基)-2,2'-联吡啶在乙腈中、70 ℃下反应72 h, 生成哑铃型化合物5, 产率为45%. 5与冠醚BPP34C10在55 ℃下搅拌5 d, 得到分子梭6和7, 产率分别为42.3%和27.3%. ¹H NMR数据表明, 富电子冠醚BPP34C10与哑铃型组分上贫电子4,4'-联吡啶的非键作用使4,4'-联吡啶上氢的化学位移向高场有较大移动.     

Flexible taper-shaped liquid crystal trimer exhibiting a modulated smectic phase

We prepared some taper-shaped liquid-crystalline trimers in which two phenylpyrimidine units and a 1,4-diphenyl-2,3-difluorobenzene unit are connected to 2,4-dihdroxy benzoic acid via flexible spacers. We then investigated their liquid-crystalline properties using polarised optical microscopy, differential scanning microscopy and X-ray diffraction. 6-[4–(5-Octylpyrimidin-2-yl)phenyloxy]hexyl 2-{7-{4-[4–(4-hexylphenyl)-2,3-difluorophenyl]phenyloxy}heptanoyloxy}-4-{6-[4–(5-octylpyrimidin-2-yl)phenyloxy]hexyloxy}benzoate (1) was found to exhibit a phase sequence of isotropic liquid – nematic – intercalated smectic A – intercalated anticlinic smectic C – modulated smectic C. The structure–property relation in the taper-shaped trimers reveals that the modulated phase is induced by competition between an intercalated structure stabilised by dipole–dipole interaction and a monolayer structure by packing entropy effects. Conformational change of compound 1 induced by intermolecular interactions plays an important role in the phase transition behaviour.     

Synthesis of 2-hydroxy-2-phenylethylamino derivatives as potential α-adrenergic blocking agents

The synthesis of N,N'-bis[6-(2-hydroxy-2-phenylethylamino)hexyl] cystamines 4 , and N-(2-hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)-1,6-hexanediamines 6 are described. Compounds 4 were obtained by condensation of the requisite epoxide 2 with 3-(6-aminohexyl)-1,3-thiazolidine followed by dimerization with opening of the thiazolidine ring. A similar method was used for the preparation of compounds 6. In order to prepare 4j (N,N'-bis{6-[2-hydroxy-2(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethylamino]hexyl}cystamine), several procedures were tested; the method of choice involved the use of 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde with both hydroxy groups protected as methoxymethyl ethers.     

Non‐symmetric liquid crystal trimers

Four homologous series of non‐symmetric linear liquid crystalline trimers, the 4‐[(4‐{n‐[4‐(4‐methoxy‐phenylazo)phenoxy]alkyloxy}benzylidene)amino]benzoic acid 6‐[4‐(4‐methoxyphenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl esters, 4‐[(4‐{n‐[4‐(4‐cyanophenylazo)phenoxy]alkyloxy}benzylidene)amino]benzoic acid 6‐[4‐(4‐methoxyphenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl esters, 4‐[(4‐{n‐[4‐(4‐methoxyphenylazo)phenoxy]alkyloxy}benzylidene)amino]benzoic acid 6‐[4‐(4‐cyanophenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl esters and 4‐[(4‐{n‐[4‐(4‐cyanophenylazo)phenoxy]butoxy}benzylidene)amino]benzoic acid 6‐[4‐(4‐cyanophenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl esters, have been synthesized and characterized. In each series one spacer was held constant while the length of the second was varied from 3 to 12 methylene units. All these trimers were nematogenic and exhibited pronounced odd–even effects in both their clearing temperatures and associated entropies. Only two of the trimers exhibited a smectic phase, and specifically those containing two differing terminal mesogenic groups and an undecyl spacer. This strongly suggests the driving force for smectic phase formation is a combination of molecular shape and a specific interaction between unlike mesogenic units. The smectic phase has been assigned as a triply‐intercalated alternating smectic C phase, the first example of its kind.     

Synthesis and characterization of poly(phenylacetylene)s carrying oligo(ethylene oxide) pendants

A group of new amphiphilic poly(phenylacetylene)s bearing polar oligo(ethylene oxide) pendants, poly{4‐[2‐(2‐hydroxyethoxy)ethoxy]phenylacetylene} ( 1 ), poly(4‐{2‐[2‐(2‐hydroxyethoxy)‐ethoxy]ethoxy}phenylacetylene) ( 2p ), poly(3‐{2‐[2‐(2‐hydroxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy}phenylacetylene) ( 2m ), poly(4‐{2‐[2‐(2‐methanesulfonyloxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy}phenylacetylene) ( 3 ), poly(4‐{2‐[2‐(p‐toluenesulfonyloxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy}phenylacetylene) ( 4 ), poly(4‐{2‐[2‐(2‐trimethylsilyloxy‐ethoxy)ethoxy] ethoxy}phenylacetylene) ( 5 ), and poly(4‐{2‐[2‐(2‐chloroethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy}phenylacetylene) ( 6 ), were synthesized with organorhodium complexes as the polymerization catalysts. The structures and properties of the polymers were characterized with IR, UV, NMR, and thermogravimetric analysis. 1 , 2p , and 2m , the three polymers containing pendants with hydroxyl groups, were oligomeric or insoluble. The organorhodium complexes worked well for the polymerization of the monomers without hydroxyl groups, giving soluble polymers 3 – 6 with a weight‐average molecular weight up to ～160 × 10³ and a yield up to 99%. Z‐rich polymers 3 – 6 could be prepared by judicious selections of the catalyst under optimal conditions. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 44: 1153–1167, 2006     

Penta- and hexaruthenium carbonyl 'raft' complexes supported by monocarborane cage ligands

Reaction between [PPh4][closo-4-CB8H9] and [Ru3(CO)12] in refluxing toluene affords the unprecedented hexaruthenium metallacarborane salt [PPh4][2,3,7-{Ru(CO)3}-2,6,11-{Ru(CO)3}-7,11,12-{Ru(CO)3}-3,6,12-(micro-H)3-2,2,7,7,11,11-(CO)6-closo-2,7,11,1-Ru3CB8H6] (1a), which contains a planar Ru6 'raft' supported by a {CB8} monocarborane cluster. Addition of [CuCl(PPh3)]4 and Tl[PF6] to a CH2Cl2 solution of 1a results in simple cation replacement, forming the analogous [Cu(PPh3)3]+ salt (1b). The phenyl-substituted monocarborane [NEt4][6-Ph-nido-6-CB9H11] reacts with [Ru3(CO)12] in refluxing 1,2-dimethoxyethane to afford the pentaruthenium cluster species [N(PPh3)2][2,3,7-{Ru(CO)3}-3,4,8-{Ru(CO)3}-7,8-(micro-H)2-1-Ph-2,2,3,3,4,4-(CO)6-hypercloso-2,3,4,1-Ru3CB8H6] (2), after addition of [N(PPh3)2]Cl. Treatment of 2 with [CuCl(PPh3)]4 and Tl[PF6] in CH2Cl2 forms the zwitterionic complex [10,12-{exo-Cu(PPh3)2}-2,3,7-{Ru(CO)3}-3,4,8-{Ru(CO)3}-7,8,10,12-(micro-H)4-1-Ph-2,2,3,3,4,4-(CO)6-hypercloso-2,3,4,1-Ru3CB8H4] (3). Substitution of CO by PPh3 with concomitant cation replacement occurs on introduction of [AuCl(PPh3)], Tl[PF6], and PPh3 to a CH2Cl2 solution of 2, forming [Au(PPh3)2][2,3,7-{Ru(CO)2PPh3}-3,4,8-{Ru(CO)2PPh3}-7,8-(micro-H)2-1-Ph-2,2,3,3,4,4-(CO)6-hypercloso-2,3,4,1-Ru3CB8H6] (4). Crystallographic studies confirmed the cluster architectures in 1b, 2, and 3.     

A Cadmium Coordination Polymer Based on Phosphate Clusters: Synthesis,Crystal Structure,Electrochemical Investigation and Antibacterial Activity

A new d¹⁰ coordination polymer, \(\left\{ {\left( {{\text{C}}_{5} {\text{H}}_{14} {\text{N}}_{2} } \right)_{2} \left[ {{\text{Cd}}\left( {\left( {{\text{P}}_{6} {\text{O}}_{18} } \right)\left( {{\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}}} \right)_{2} } \right)} \right] \cdot 6{\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}}} \right\}_{n}\), was prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction, IR-Raman spectroscopy, thermal analysis and cyclic voltammetry. The crystal structure determination reveals that the phosphate anions alternate with the cadmium octahedral to form an anionic coordination polymer extending along [001] direction. The double protonated homopiperazine cations and the water molecules ensure the interconnection between polymers and thus giving rise to three dimensional supramolecular networks. By means of cyclic voltammetry, it is shown that whilst the reduction of the complexed Cd²⁺ occurs with a biggest difficulty than this of its free form, the anodic oxidation of the heterocyclic N donor piperazine became quite easy, when it is displayed as a counterpart diprotonated cation, between the anionic layers of \(\left[ {{\text{Cd}}({\text{P}}_{6} {\text{O}}_{18} )({\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}})_{2} )} \right]_{\text{n}}^{{4{\text{n}} - }}\). The antibacterial activity of the coordination polymer is also discussed.     

Large pressure-induced red shift of the luminescence band originating from nonstacked square-planar [Pt(SCN)4]2- in a novel trimetallic complex

Luminescence of the novel trimetallic complex {Pt(SCN)2[(mu-SCN)Mn(NCS)(bipy)2]2} originates from a d-d transition of the square-planar [Pt(SCN)4]2- moiety. The band maximum shows a red shift of -99 cm(-1) kbar(-1) under external pressure up to 32 kbar at room temperature. This red shift is comparable to values for crystals where Pt-Pt interaction between stacked complexes is enhanced by pressure, but the crystal structure for the trimetallic complex shows that no metal-metal interaction can occur.     

Dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs) containing S/N/O ligation: transformation of Roussin's red ester into the neutral {Fe(NO)2}10 DNICs

Addition of the Lewis base [OPh]- to the THF solution of Roussin's red ester [Fe(mu-SC6H4-o-NHCOPh)(NO)2]2 (1) and [Fe(mu-SC6H4-o-COOH)(NO)2]2 (2), respectively, yielded the EPR-active, anionic {Fe(NO)2}9, [(SC6H4-o-NCOPh)Fe(NO)2]- (3) with the anionic [SC6H4-o-NCOPh]2- ligand bound to the {Fe(NO)2} core in a bidentate manner (S,N-bonded) and [(SC6H4-o-COO)Fe(NO)2]- (4) with the anionic [SC6H4-o-COO]2- ligand bound to the {Fe(NO)2} core in a bidentate manner (S,O-bonded), characterized by IR, UV-vis, EPR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In contrast to the bridged-thiolate cleavage yielding the neutral {Fe(NO)2}9, [(SC6H4-o-NHCOPh)(Im)Fe(NO)2] (Im=imidazole), by addition of 2 equiv of imidazole to complex 1 observed in the previous study, the addition of the stronger sigma-donating and pi-accepting PPh3 ligand triggered the reductive elimination of bridged thiolates of complex 1 to yield the neutral {Fe(NO)2}10, [(PPh3)2Fe(NO)2]. These results unambiguously illustrate one aspect of how the nucleophile L (L=imidazole, PPh3, [OPh]-) functions to control the reaction pathways (bridged-thiolate cleavage, reductive elimination, and deprotonation) upon the reaction of complex 1 and the nucleophile L. The EPR-active, dimeric {Fe(NO)2}9 dinitrosyl iron complex (DNIC) [Fe(mu-SC7H4SN)(NO)2]2 (6), with S and N atoms of the anionic [-SC7H4SN-]- (2-benzothiozolyl thiolate) ligands bound to two separate {Fe(NO)2}9 cores, was also synthesized from reaction of bis(2-benzothiozolyl) disulfide and [(NO)2Fe(PPh3)2]. A straightforward reaction of complex 6 and 4 equiv of [N3]- conducted in THF led to the anionic {Fe(NO)2}9, [(N3)2Fe(NO)2]- (7). Conclusively, the EPR-active, {Fe(NO)2}9 DNICs can be classified into the anionic {Fe(NO)2}9 DNICs with S/N/O ligation, the neutral {Fe(NO)2}9 DNIC with one thiolate and one neutral imidazole ligation, and the cationic {Fe(NO)2}9 DNICs with the neutral N-/P-containing coordinated ligands.     

Spin-crossover behavior in cyanide-bridged iron(II)-silver(I) bimetallic 2D Hofmann-like metal-organic frameworks

Two new series of compounds formulated {Fe(3-Xpyridine)2[Ag(CN)2]2} (X = F (1), Cl (2), Br (3), I (4)) and {Fe(3-Xpyridine)2[Ag(CN)2][Ag(3-Xpyridine)(CN)2]}.3-Xpy (X = Br (5), I (6)) have been synthesized and characterized. The six compounds are made up of stacking of slightly corrugated two-dimensional coordination polymers defined by sharing {Fe4[Ag(CN)2]4}n motifs. The stacking is different for the two families. In compounds 1-4 the layers are organized by pairs displaying argentophilic interactions; the Ag...Ag distance was found to be in the interval 3.0-3.3 A, while the Ag...Ag separation between two consecutive layers belonging to different pairs was found to be around 6 A. Compounds 5 and 6 are isostructural with a crystal packing defined by an almost homogeneous distribution of layers separated by around 8.3 A (referred to the Fe...Fe interlayer distance). Between the layers an uncoordinated 3-Xpyridine molecule is included. Another 3-Xpyridine molecule, which remains in the plane defined by the {Fe4[Ag(CN)2]4}n windows, coordinates one silver atom. Both series display quite different properties; at 300 K, 1-4 are pale-yellow and display similar distorted [FeN6] octahedron cores characteristic of the iron(II) ion in the high-spin state. 1 and 2 undergo a two-step (T(1)1/2 = 96 K and T(2)1/2 = 162 K) and a 50% spin transition (T1/2 = 106 K), respectively. Compounds 3 and 4 are high-spin compounds at ambient pressure. 5 and 6 are deep red in color at 300 K and undergo spin-crossover behavior at significantly higher temperatures T1/2 = 306 and 261 K, respectively.     

Neutral {Fe(NO)2}9 dinitrosyliron complex (DNIC) [(SC6H4-o-NHCOPh)(Im)Fe(NO)2] (Im = imidazole): interconversion among the anionic/neutral {Fe(NO)2}9 DNICs and Roussin's red ester

A neutral {Fe(NO)2}9 dinitrosyliron complex (DNIC) [(SC6H4-o-NHCOPh)(Im)Fe(NO)2] (Im = imidazole; 2) was prepared by the reaction of [Fe(mu-SC6H4-o-NHCOPh)(NO)2]2 (1) and 2 equiv of imidazole. In the synthesis of the anionic {Fe(NO)2}9 DNIC [(SC6H4-o-NHCOPh)2Fe(NO)2]- (3), thiolate [SC6H4-o-NHCOPh]- triggers ligand substitution of DNIC 2 to yield DNIC 3. At 298 K, complexes 2 and 3 exhibit well-resolved nine- and five-line electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signals at g = 2.031 and 2.029, respectively, the characteristic g value of DNICs. The facile interconversions among the neutral {Fe(NO)2}9 complex 2, the anionic {Fe(NO)2}9 complex 3, and Roussin's red ester 1 were demonstrated. The EPR spectrum (the pattern of hyperfine splitting) in combination with the IR nu(NO) (the relative position of the nu(NO) stretching frequencies) spectrum may serve as an efficient tool for the discrimination of the anionic {Fe(NO)2}9 DNICs, the neutral {Fe(NO)2}9 DNICs, and Roussin's red ester.     

Cationic,water‐soluble,fluorene‐containing poly(arylene ethynylene)s: Effects of water solubility on aggregation,photoluminescence efficiency,and amplified fluorescence quenching in aqueous solutions

Three novel fluorene‐containing poly(arylene ethynylene)s with amino‐functionalized side groups were synthesized through the Sonogashira reaction. They were poly{9,9‐bis[6′‐(N,N‐diethylamino)hexyl]‐2,7‐fluorenylene ethynylene}‐alt‐co‐{2,5‐bis[3′‐(N,N‐diethylamino)‐1′‐oxapropyl]‐1,4‐phenylene} ( P1 ), poly{9,9‐bis[6′‐(N,N‐diethylamino)hexyl]‐2,7‐fluorenylene ethynylene} ( P2 ), and poly({9,9‐bis[6′‐(N,N‐diethylamino)hexyl]‐2,7‐fluorenylene ethynylene}‐alt‐co‐(1,4‐phenylene)) ( P3 ). Through the postquaternization treatment of P1 – P3 with methyl iodide, we obtained their cationic water‐soluble conjugated polyelectrolytes (WSCPs): P1′ – P3′ . The water solubility was gradually improved from P3′ to P1′ with increasing contents of hydrophilic side chains. After examining the ultraviolet–visible absorption and photoluminescence (PL) spectra, fluorescence lifetimes, and dynamic light scattering data, we propose that with the reduction of the water solubility from P1′ to P3′ , they exhibited a gradually increased degree of aggregation in H₂O. The PL quantum yields of P1′ – P3′ in H₂O displayed a decreasing tendency consistent with the increased degree of aggregation, suggesting that the pronounced degree of aggregation was an important reason for the low PL quantum yields of WSCPs in H₂O. Two structurally analogous water‐soluble trimers of P2′ and P3′ , model compounds 2,7‐bis(9″,9″‐bis{6‴‐[(N,N‐diethyl)‐N‐methylammonium] hexyl}‐2″‐fluorenylethynyl)‐9,9‐bis{6′‐[(N,N‐diethyl)‐N‐methylammonium]hexyl}fluorene hexaiodide and 1,4‐bis(9′,9′‐bis{6″‐[(N,N‐diethyl)‐N‐methylammonium]hexyl}‐2′‐fluorenylethynyl)benzene tetraiodide, were synthesized. The amplified fluorescence quenching of these WSCPs by Fe(CN)₆⁴⁻ in H₂O was studied by comparison with a corresponding analogous trimer. The effects of aggregation on the fluorescence quenching may be two‐edged in these cases. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 44: 5778–5794, 2006

Probing the self-assembly of inorganic cluster architectures in solution with cryospray mass spectrometry: growth of polyoxomolybdate clusters and polymers mediated by silver(I) ions

Cryospray mass spectrometry (CSI-MS) has been used to probe the mechanism of self-assembly of polyoxometalate clusters in solution. By using CSI-MS and electronic absorbance spectroscopy it was possible to monitor in real-time the self-assembly of polymeric chains based on [Ag 2Mo 8O 26] (2-) n building blocks. The role of the Ag (I) ion in the solution state rearrangement of molybdenum Lindqvist ({Mo 6}) into the silver-linked beta-octamolybdate ({Mo 8}) structure (( n-C 4H 9) 4N) 2 n [Ag 2Mo 8O 26] n ( 1) is revealed in unprecedented detail. A monoanionic series, in particular [AgMo m O 3 m+1 ] (-) where m = 2 to 4, and series involving mixed oxidation state polyoxomolybdate species, which illustrate the in-solution formation of the (Ag{Mo 8}Ag) building blocks, have been observed. CSI-MS detection of species with increasing metal nuclearity concomitant with increasing organic cation contribution supports the hypothesis that the organic cations used in the synthesis play an important structure-directing role in polyoxometalate (POM) growth in solution. A real-time decrease in [{Mo 6}] and associated increase in [{Mo 8}] have been observed using CSI-MS and electronic absorbance spectroscopy, and the rate of {Mo 6} interconversion to {Mo 8} was found to decrease on increasing the size of the countercation. This result can be attributed to the steric bulk of larger organic groups hindering {Mo 6} to {Mo 8} rearrangement and hindering the contact between silver cations and molybdenum anions.
