Abstract: | The monovanadium‐substituted polyoxometalate anion VMo7O26]5?, exhibiting a β‐octamolybdate archetype structure, was selectively prepared as pentapotassium hexaikosaoxido(heptamolybdenumvanadium)]ate hexahydrate, K5VMo7O26]·6H2O ( VMo7 ), by oxidation of a reduced vanadomolybdate solution with hydrogen peroxide in a fast one‐pot approach. X‐ray structure analysis revealed that the V atom occupies a single position in the cluster that differs from the other positions by the presence of one doubly‐bonded O atom instead of two terminal oxide ligands in all other positions. The composition and structure of VMo7 was also confirmed by elemental analyses and IR spectroscopy. The selectivity of the synthesis was inspected by a 51V NMR investigation which showed that this species bound about 95% of VV in the crystallization solution. Upon dissolution of VMo7 in aqueous solution, the VMo7O26]5? anion is substantially decomposed, mostly into VMo5O19]3?, α‐VMo7O26]4? and V2Mo4O19]4?, depending on the pH. |
