Abstract:

Two new polyoxometalate(POM)-based hybrid compounds, [Cu(en)][H4Mo4O16]0.5(1)(en=ethylene- diamine) and [Ag(3-C5H6N2)2][H2PMo12O40](2)(3-C5H6N2=3-aminopyridine), containing different transition metal-amine subunits were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, infrared spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. For compound 1, each [H4Mo4O16]4-(Mo4O16) cluster was linked to four neighboring Mo4O16 clusters through four [Cu(en)]2+ subunits to yield a (2,4)-connected 2D layer, which was further extended to a 3D supramolecular network via hydrogen bonding interactions. For compound 2, the adjacent [H2PMo12O40]- clusters were bridged by [Ag(3-C5H6N2)2]+ subunits to generate a 1D chain. The electrochemical behaviors and the photocatalytic activities of compounds 1 and 2 were studied in detail.
