Abstract
The iron(III)-containing arsenotungstate [FeIII2(AsIIIW6O23)2(AsIIIO3H)2]12− (1) was prepared via a simple, one-pot reaction in aqueous basic medium. The compound was isolated as its sodium salt, and structurally-characterized by Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction (SCXRD), Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD), Fourier-Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and elemental analysis. Its magnetic properties are reported; the antiferromagnetic coupling between the two FeIII centers is unusually weak as a result of the bridging geometry imposed by the rigid arsenotungstate metalloligands.
Highlights

Summary
Polyoxometalates (POMs) are discrete molecular metal oxides, typically composed of early transition metals (M) (such as W6+, Mo6+, V5+, Nb5+ and Ta5+) in their high oxidation states. The inherent properties of parent POMs can basically be modified by tuning the primary structural properties at the atomic or molecular level [4]. Among magnetically functionalized POMs, the chemistry of iron-POMs is of great interest for their inherent magnetic properties; they often exhibit interesting magnetic properties due to the high-spin FeII/III centers [22,23]. Another important aspect of iron-POMs is their catalytic applications due to the available FeII/III redox couple [24,25,26,27]
