Abstract
A novel copper compound constructed from Wells-Dawson polyanion clusters and metal-organic complex subunits,[Cu(2,2′-Bipy)3]3(P2W18O62) · 2H2O(I), has been prepared under hydrothermal conditions, and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV, TG, cyclic voltammetry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal structural analysis indicates that I crystallizes in triclinic system, space group P \( \bar 1 \), a = 15.6195(11), b = 17.144(2), c = 25.0900(15) A, α = 93.1040(10)°, β = 94.309(3)°, γ = 102.642(2)°. Three Cu2+ ions have the same coordination environment: Cu(1), Cu(2), and Cu(3) are all six-coordinated by three 2, 2′-Bipy. The Dawson polyoxoanion [P2M18O62]6− do not coordinate with the Cu2+ ion added for charge balance.
