One-dimensional polyoxometalate polymer constructed from V–W cluster by using asymmetrical bipyridine ligand

Abstract

The asymmetrical organic molecule 2,4′-bipyridine (bpy) is explored to assemble polyoxometalate into a one-dimensional hybrid and compound [Cu I(bpy) 2] 3[Cu I 3(bpy) 4][V VW VI 9W V 3O 40] ( 1) is achieved. Compound 1 represents a V-centered Keggin [V VW VI 9W V 3O 40] 6− cluster bonded together by incorporating secondary metal coordination group of Cu–bpy. The thermogravimetric analysis of 1 has also been researched.
