Abstract

The synthesis of [K(4.5) ⊂ (ClSn(II))8P8W48O184](17.5-), featuring Sn(II) ions in trigonal-pyramidal SnO2Cl environment coordinating to the two inner rims of the wheel-shaped {P8W48}-type polyoxotungstate(vi) archetype, showcases how high chloride ligand concentrations as well as the control of the polyanion solubility via electrolytes and evaporation rates are essential to prevent numerous competing reactions that can hamper the Sn(ii) functionalization of polyoxometalates.
