Abstract: | Exploring efficient heterogeneous catalysts for catalytic oxidation of chemical warfare agents (CWAs) is highly desired. As a class of discrete anionic metal oxide clusters, polyoxometalates (POMs) provide abundant catalytic active sites, thus resulting their rich redox properties. Here, a family of known POM-incorporated CuI-resorcin4]arene metal-organic complexes, namely, Cu4(TPTR4A)2]PW12O40](OH) ⋅ 0.5DMA ⋅ 5H2O ( Cu - PW ), Cu4(TPTR4 A)2]PMo12O40](OH) ⋅ 2DMA ⋅ H2O ( Cu - PMo ) and Cu4(TPTR4A)2]SiW12O40] ⋅ 2.5DMA ( Cu - SiW ) were utilized as catalysts to promote the oxidation of 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES). Strikingly, compared to the novel compound Cu3Cl6(TPTR4A)(DMA)] ⋅ CH3CH2OH (defined as Cu - T ), the three complexes exhibited excellent stability, indicating that the integration of POMs and metal–organic units could improve the stability of the compounds. Moreover, Cu - PMo and Cu - PW showed higher activities for the catalytic oxidation of CEES to CEESO with selectivities both of 99 %. |
