Abstract
Abstract The Keggin-type β-[PW 12 O 40 ] 3− complex was prepared, and the voltammetric behavior was compared with that of the Keggin-type α-[PW 12 O 40 ] 3− complex. Both complexes underwent a four-step one-electron reduction in CH 3 CN where no protonation accompanied reduction. With the addition of CF 3 SO 3 H, the one-electron reduction waves were converted into two two-electron waves, followed by an ill-defined wave. The addition of water to the CH 3 CN+CF 3 SO 3 H system caused the first two-electron wave to split into two one-electron waves. The effect of acid or water on the voltammetric behavior is discussed also.
