Hybrid polyoxometalates

In 2010 the self-assembly of a hybrid polyoxometalate (POM) was studied by real-time monitoring of ESl-MS. A pathway was proposed based on observed intermediates followed by rearrangement of [a-Mo8026] , coordination of Mn " and coordination of two tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane ligands (TRIS) to form a symmetrical Mn cluster [97].

Hydrogen peroxide is an inexpensive oxidant, but it requires a catalyst to effect oxidation of an alcohol to the ketone. Removal of the catalyst then becomes an issue. Ronny Neumann of the Weizmann Institute of Science reports (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004,126, 884) the development of a hybrid organic-tungsten polyoxometalate complex that is not soluble in organic solvents, but that nonetheless catalyzes the hydrogen peroxide oxidation of alcohols to ketones. The solid catalyst is removed by filtration after the completion of the reaction. The catalyst retained its activity after five recyles. 

Polyoxometalates are important catalysts but they are also finding application in optical, electrical, and magnetic devices. Mixed-metal polyoxometalates with vanadium(V) in the polyoxoanion core confers enhanced properties to such structures, principally in their ability to form essentially infinite networks that can be utilized as coatings or as other thin film materials. Additionally, these materials have tunable electromagnetic and photochromic properties. In combination with organic polymers, so-called hybrid polymers, special electrochemical properties are conferred, making possible such electrical storage devices such as capacitors and batteries that utilize the redox properties of the polyoxometalate [7],... 

There is little doubt that diverse physical properties common to polyoxometalates places them in an almost unmatched class of materials which could be extremely useful as hybrid materials and nanocomposites [31]. In this section we will focus on POM systems with properties that could be exploited in the development of molecular-scale devices. 

In one such approach we seek to exploit the potential signal transduction properties of the thermochromic Dawson [40] polyoxometalates and combine this with a fluorescent POM-hybrid to produce a device that could respond optically as a function of the local environment, see Figure 2.12. In this example, the clusters would be positioned on a gold surface using SAMs (Self-assembled monolayer) with a cationic tail and local positional control could be aimed using self-assembly, or even by means of an atomic force microscope tip.

Polyoxometalates have found applications in analytical and clinical chemistry, catalysis (including photocatalysis), biochemistry (electron transport inhibition), medicine (antitumoral, antiviral, and even anti-HIV activity), and solid-state device [19,20], Recently, three-dimensional ordered materials are modified by the incorporation of POM into wall structures using a direct synthesis approach [21,22], The motivation for the work lies in the novel properties that POM is introduced into silica networks [19,20], The incorporation is that the POM is linked to silica matrix by covalent grafting. A class of POM that are particularly attractive for the preparation of hybrid materials are the lacunary POM. Lacunary POMs include the mono and divacant unsaturated Keggin fragments [X" W,039]< ">- (X"+=B Ge P [22], [ Y -SiWioOgg] [21], Lacunary... 

Characterization of the XMo,-Si02 materials indicated that the synthesis produced three-dimensional ordered macroporous materials with highly dispersed polyoxometalates covalently incorporated within the wall structures. IR, UV/DRS, solid-state MAS NMR spectra confirmed that the polyoxometalates remained intact in the hybrid macroporous silica materials. At first, three solid XMOu-SiOj materials all exhibited two absorptions with maxima at ca. 200 and 260 nm, respectively (Figure 1). The former is stronger and...

Ying Lu received a Ph.D degree from Northeast Normal University in 2005 under the supervision of Professor Enbo Wang. From 2006 to 2008 she worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Ulm with Professor Dirk Volkmer. Currently she is an Associate Professor in Northeast Normal University. Her research is focused on the synthesis, structure and characterization of polyoxometalate-based organic-inorganic hybrid materials. 

The main type of inorganic-LDH hybrid system comes from intercalation of oxometalates into the interlayer space of LDHs because of the high catalytic activity of both oxometalates and LDHs. Typical synthetic routes are similar to those of pillared clays, as mentioned before. After pristine nitrate/chloride-LDHs are anion exchanged with polyoxometalates, usually at elevated temperatures, the pillared polyoxometalates are stabilized within the interlayer space by calcination.

Because of the considerable variety of materials that can be classified as porous, the discussion will be limited to several groups porous silicates and aluminosilicates, porous metal oxides and related compounds, porous polyoxometalates, metal-organic frameworks, porous carbons, carbon nanotubes, and several hybrid materials. All these materials can be viewed as relatively homogeneous from the electrochemical point of view. Metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, organic metals, fullerenes, and dendrimers, which can also be regarded as nanostructured materials, also displaying distinctive electrochemical features, will not be treated here for reasons of brevity, although their appearance in hybrid materials as modifiers for microporous materials will be discussed.
