Abstract: | >From Small Fragments to New Poly‐alkoxo‐oxo‐metalate Derivatives: Syntheses and Crystal Structures of K4VIV12O12(OCH3)16(C4O4)6], Cs10VIV24O24(OCH3)32(C4O4)12]VIV8O8(OCH3)16(C2O4)], and M2VIV8O8(OCH3)16(VIVOF4)] (M = N(nBu)4] or NEt4]) By solvothermal reaction of ortho‐vanadicacid ester VO(OMe)3] with squaric acid and potassium or caesium hydroxide the compounds K4VIV12O12(OCH3)16(C4O4)6] ( 2 ) and Cs10VIV24O24(OCH3)32(C4O4)12]VIV8O8(OCH3)16(C2O4)] ( 3 ) could be syntesized. With tetra‐n‐butyl‐ or tetra‐n‐ethylammonium fluoride N(nBu)4]2VIV8O8(OCH3)16(VIVOF4)] ( 4 ) and N(Et)4]2VIV8O8(OCH3)16(VIVOF4)] ( 5 ) could be isolated. In 2 and 3 the corners of a tetrahedron or cube resp. are occupied by {(VO)3(OMe)4} groups and connected along the edges of the tetrahedron resp. cube by six or twelve resp. squarato‐groups. The octanuclear anions in the compounds 3 , 4 , and 5 are assumedly built up by fragments of the ortho‐vanadicacid ester VO(OMe)3]. Around the anions C2O42— or VOF4— these oligormeric chains are closed to a ring .
