Hydrothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Fluorescent Property of a Keggin Polyoxometalate [CuI(2,2''-bipy)2]3[PWⅥ12O40]

A Keggin-type tungstohosphate compound [CuI(2,2'-bipy)2]3[PWVI12O40] 1 (bipy = bipyridine) was prepared by the hydrothermal method for the first time. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that 1 (C60H48Cu3N12O40PW12) crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 16.9837(10), b = 17.9732(13) c = 27.8701(13)(A), β = 96.1039(10)°, V = 8459.2(9)(A)3, Mr = 4004.89, Z = 4, Dc = 3.145 g/cm3, μ = 17.089 mm-1, F(000) = 7208, S = 1.005, the final R = 0.0469 and wR = 0.0827 for 10807 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)). Compound 1 consists of one discrete normal Keggin polyanion [PWVI12O40]3- and three isolated coordinated cat- ions [CuI(2,2'-bipy)2]+. Significantly, there exist three crystallographically independent asymmetric reduced copper (I) centers in 1. Furthermore, the compound shows strong photoluminescence property in solid state at room temperature.     

Phenylimido Functionalization of alpha-[PW12O40]3-

A synthetic route of potentially wide scope is reported herein for the organoimido functionalization of polyoxotungstates. This report focuses on the reaction between the monovacant lacunary polyoxotungstate, alpha-((n-C4H9)4N)4H3[PW11O39], and W(NC6H5)Cl4 in anhydrous acetonitrile. Evidence from 1H, 31P, 183W, and 1H-183W HMQC NMR spectroscopy, as well as cyclic voltammetry, electronic absorption, and elemental analysis, is presented for the formation of alpha-[PW12O39(NC6H5)]3- (2) of Cs symmetry, which is structurally related to Td alpha-[PW12O40]3- (3) by formal oxide substitution. The electronic structure of 2 is significantly perturbed from 3 with significant arylimido-->tungsten charge transfer, primarily localized to the W(NC6H5) fragment with secondary charge delocalization onto the remaining W and corner-shared bridging O atoms. This is consistent with the approximately 800 ppm downfield 183W NMR shift for the phenylimido-tungsten, modest cathodic shifts in reversible redox potentials, electronic and IR spectra, and density functional theory calculations.     

Infrared and computational investigation of vanadium-substituted Keggin [PVnW12-nO40](n+3)- polyoxometallic anions

This study investigates complex salts of [PW(12)O(40)](3-), [PVW(11)O(40)](4-), [PV(2)W(10)O(40)](5-), and [PV(3)W(9)O(40)](6-) Keggin anions using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy under ambient atmospheric and high-vacuum conditions and by computational methods. A detailed vibrational study suggests that the presence and amount of vanadium in these anions can be tested quickly and reliably with the help of infrared spectroscopy because the salts of these anions exhibit distinctly different infrared absorption signatures (particularly in the 1025-1250 cm(-1) region, where the P-O stretch is surrounded by a set of complex vibrations involving V-O and W-O bonds). Investigation of these salts with different countercations suggests that the overall appearance of the spectra, and thus the ability to use infrared as a diagnostic tool to identify the presence and number of vanadium atoms in Keggin structure anions, is not affected significantly. Last, it is shown that all the structures investigated are extremely stable across a wide range of temperatures.     

Photoelectron spectroscopy of free multiply charged Keggin anions alpha-[PM12O40]3- (M = Mo, W) in the gas phase

Two polyoxometalate Keggin-type anions, alpha-PM12O40(3-) (M = Mo, W), were transferred to the gas phase by electrospray; their electronic structure and stability were probed by photoelectron spectroscopy. These triply charged anions were found to be highly stable in the gas phase with large adiabatic electron detachment energies of 1.7 and 2.1 eV for M = Mo and W, respectively. The magnitude of the repulsive Coulomb barrier was measured as approximately 3.4 eV for both anions, providing an experimental estimate for the intramolecular Coulomb repulsion present in these highly charged anions. Density functional theory calculations were carried out and compared with the experimental data, providing insight into the electronic structure and valence molecular orbitals of the two Keggin anions. The calculations indicated that the highest occupied molecular orbital and other frontier orbitals for PM12O40(3-) are localized primarily on the mu2-oxo bridging ligands of the polyoxometalate framework, consistent with the reactivity on the mu2-oxo sites observed in solution. It was shown that the HOMO of PW12O40(3-) is stabilized relative to that of PMo12O40(3-) by approximately 0.35 eV. The experimental adiabatic electron detachment energies of PM12O40(3-) (i.e., the electron affinities of PM12O40(2-)) are combined with recent calculations on the proton affinity of PM12O40(3-) to yield O-H bond dissociation energies in PM12O39(OH)2- as approximately 5.1 eV.

Structural and electronic properties of hetero-transition-metal Keggin anions: a DFT Study of alpha/beta-[XW12O40]n- (X = CrVI, VV, TiIV, FeIII, CoIII, NiIII, CoII, and ZnII) relative stability

Density functional theory calculations have been carried out to investigate the electronic structures and the alpha/beta relative stability of Keggin-typed [XW(12)O(40)]n- anions with transition metal as heteroatom X (X = Cr(VI), V(V), Ti(IV), Fe(III), Co(III), Ni(III), Co(II) and Zn(II)). Nice agreement in geometries between computation and experiment has been obtained, and the higher stability of the alpha isomer over the beta one has been confirmed. Structural parameter analysis reveals that the {M(3)O(13)} triads in both alpha and beta isomers contract considerably with the increase of the negative anionic charge, while the overall size of both isomers shrinks only slightly. Fragment molecular orbital analysis shows that except alpha/beta-[TiW(12)O(40)]4-, the electronic structures of Keggin anions can be described by the insertion of the e and/or t2 orbital of XO4n- into the frontier orbitals of W(12)O(36) cage, and this leads to the specific redox property, which is different from that of the Keggin anions with main-group elements as heteroatoms. Energy decomposition analysis shows that the enhanced intrinsic stability of the alpha isomer in Td arrangement of W(12)O(36) shell and the larger deformation of the alpha over the beta isomer are two dominating factors and contribute oppositely to the alpha/beta relative stability.

Theoretical investigation of structural and electronic propertyies of [PW12O40]3- on graphene layer

The structural and electronic properties of [PW(12)O(40)](3-) (PW(12)) anion deposited on a graphene layer are investigated by using periodic density functional theory. The equilibrium geometries of graphene-PW(12) (G-PW(12)) are examined based on six different configurations. The adsorption energy and charge transfer between PW(12) and graphene are calculated and analyzed. We found that the interaction between PW(12) and graphene are noncovalent. The formation of G-PW(12) complex is theoretically predicted to be feasible from an energetic perspective with electron transfer from the PW(12) to graphene.

Hybrid Tungstocuprate [Cu(2,2'-bpy)3]2H4[CuW12O40]·6H2O Based on Keggin Polyoxoanion [CuW12O40]6-with CuⅡas Heteroatom

A novel hybrid tungstocuprate(Ⅱ) [Cu(2,2'-bpy)3]2H4[CuW12O40]·6H2O(2,2'-bpy=2,2'-bipyridine) was synthesized via hydrothermal method and characterized using elemental analyses, IR, UV, XPS, TG-DSC, EPR, and X-ray single crystal diffraction. The structural analysis shows that the complex consists of an unusual Keggin-type polyoxoanion [CuW12O40]6- and a pair of chiral complex cations [Cu(2,2'-bpy)3] together with four protons and six crystallization water molecules, and the Keggin polyoxoanion is connected with [Cu(2,2'-bpy)3] via multiple C-H…O hydrogen bonds resulting in a dimer.     

Location, acid strength, and mobility of the acidic protons in Keggin 12-H3PW12O40: a combined solid-state NMR spectroscopy and DFT quantum chemical calculation study

Solid-state 13C NMR experiments and quantum chemical Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations of acetone adsorption were used to study the location of protons in anhydrous 12-tungstophosphoric acid (HPW), the mobility of the isolated and hydrated acidic protons, and the acid strength heterogeneity of the anhydrous hydroxyl groups. This study presents the first direct NMR experimental evidence that there are two types of isolated protons with different acid strengths in the anhydrous Keggin HPW. Rotational Echo DOuble Resonance (REDOR) NMR experiments combined with quantum chemical DFT calculations demonstrated that acidic protons in anhydrous HPW are localized on both bridging (Oc) and terminal (Od) atoms of the Keggin unit. The CP/MAS NMR experiments revealed that the isolated acidic protons are immobile, but hydrated acidic protons are highly mobile at room temperature. The isotropic chemical shift of the adsorbed acetone suggested that the acid strength of the H(H2O)n+ species in partially hydrated HPW is comparable to that of a zeolite, while the acidity of an isolated proton is much stronger than that of a zeolite. Isolated protons on the bridging oxygen atoms of anhydrous HPW are nearly superacidic.

About the Keggin isomers: crystal structure of [N(C4H9)4]-gamma-[SiMo2W10O40]n- (n= 4 or 6)

The tetrabutylammonium gamma-dodecatungstosilicate has been crystallized in a 6/1 acetonitrile/water solvent. An X-ray single-crystal analysis was carried out on [N(C4H9)4]4-gamma-[SiW12O40] which crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with a = 19.0881(3) A, b = 21.4435(3) A, c = 26.0799(1) A, V = 10674.9(2) A3, Z = 4, and rho(calcd) = 2.392 g/cm3. The idealized C2v arrangement of the anion results from the rotation of 60 degrees of two trigonal [W3O13] groups in the Keggin anion. Taking as reference the geometrical characteristics of the Keggin anion, it appears that the bond lengths and bonds angles within the four [W3O13] groups are not significantly modified while the mu-oxo junctions between the two rotated groups and those between the two unrotated groups involve more acute and opened W-O-W angles, respectively. The syntheses and 183W NMR characterizations of the mixed gamma-[SiW10Mo2O40]n- compounds corresponding to the oxidized (Mo(VI); n = 4) and to the two electron-reduced (Mo(V); n = 6) anions are reported. Structural analysis by 183W NMR has proved unambiguously that the C2v structure of the gamma-[SiW10O36]8- subunit is retained in both the compounds. The electronic behavior of the series gamma-[SiW10M2E2O36]6- (M = Mo or W; E = O or S) is examined, compared and related to 183W NMR data.
