Abstract

An unusual supramolecular hybrid material based on the Dawson molybdoarsenate, (H2bimyb)3(As2Mo18O62) (1) (bimyb=1,4-Bis(imidazol-l-ylmethyl) benze) has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TG, UV, XRD, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In compound 1, the {As2Mo18O62} cluster uses its surface oxygen atoms to attract 14 bimyb ligands, which are further surrounded by 22 Dawson polyanions via strong supramolecular interactions to form close-packed 3D supramolecular networks with a (1491)(510)(46) topology structure. Compound 1 represents the highest connectivity of Dawson molybdoarsenate. In addition, compound 1 exhibits bifunctional electrocatalytic behaviors for oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA) and reduction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), as well as high-efficient degradation ability for typical dye MB under UV light.
