Abstract
The polyanion [AgAs(2)Mo(15)O(54)](11-) has an unusual cage-like structure composed of [AsMo(6)O(27)](15-) and [AsMo(6)O(24)](9-) subunits connected by three MoO(4) tetrahedra, and a Ag(+) cation is inclosed at the center of the cage and coordinated by two As atoms with a As-Ag-As bond angle of 180° along with three μ(3)-oxo groups from MoO(4) tetrahedra to lead to a trigonal-pyramidal coordination geometry. The compound was also characterized by IR, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, fluorescent spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry. The stability of [AgAs(2)Mo(15)O(54)](11-) in aqueous solution was investigated by using electronic absorbance spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
