Abstract: | A family of three sandwich‐type, phenylantimony(III)‐containing tungstoarsenates(III), (PhSbIII){Na(H2O)}AsIII2W19O67(H2O)]11? ( 1 ), (PhSbIII)2AsIII2W19O67(H2O)]10? ( 2 ), and (PhSbIII)3(B‐α‐AsIIIW9O33)2]12? ( 3 ), have been synthesized by one‐pot procedures and isolated as hydrated alkali metal salts, Cs3K3.5Na4.5(PhSbIII){Na(H2O)}AsIII2W19O67(H2O)]?41H2O ( CsKNa ‐ 1 ), Cs4.5K5.5(PhSbIII)2AsIII2W19O67(H2O)]?35H2O ( CsK‐2 ), and Cs4.5Na7.5(PhSbIII)3(B‐α‐AsIIIW9O33)2]?42H2O ( CsNa ‐ 3 ). The number of incorporated {PhSbIII} units could be selectively tuned from one to three by careful control of the reaction parameters. The three compounds were characterized in the solid state by single‐crystal XRD, IR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The aqueous solution stability of sandwich polyanions 1 – 3 was also studied by multinuclear (1H, 13C, 183W) NMR spectroscopy. Effective inhibitory activity against six different kinds of bacteria was identified for all three polyanions, for which the activity increased with the number of incorporated {PhSbIII} groups. |
