Two‐ and Three‐Dimensional Frameworks Constructed From Bicapped Keggin Clusters

Abstract

Abstract The novel two‐ and three‐dimensional solid materials [Cu(en) 2 (H 2 O)]{PMo VI 8 V IV 6 O 42 [Cu(en) 2 ][Cu 0.5 (en)] 3 }·5.5H 2 O and H 3 {V V Mo VI 8 V IV 6 O 42 [Cu(en) 2 ] 4 }[MoO 4 ] 2 ·14H 2 O (en = ethylenediamine) have been hydrothermally assembled and structurally characterized. Both networks are based on mixed Mo/V bicapped Keggin clusters interconnected through the transition metal complex moieties. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2003)
