Abstract
Rhenium-(V), -(VI) and -(VII) complexes of the [α2-P2W17O61]10– isomer, a mono-lacunary derivative of the [α-P2W18O62]6– (Wells–Dawson) ion have been prepared and characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, electrospray mass spectrometry and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, among other techniques. The molecules have the formulation [α2-ReOP2W17O61]n–, where n = 7,6,5 for ReV, ReVI and ReVII, respectively. 183W NMR spectroscopy for the ReV and ReVII analogs shows that the molecules have Cs symmetry, as expected for substitution in the α2 site. Simulations of the X-band and Q-band EPR spectra of the ReVI analog, using Cs symmetry, allow determination of the g, hyperfine and quadrupole coupling tensors. X-Band, Q-band and W-band EPR spectroscopy show extreme variations in linewidths due to random strains or distortions of the complex.
