The process of grafting H(3)PMo(12)O(40) onto silica surfaces is studied using periodic density functional theory methods. For surfaces with a high hydroxyl coverage, the hydroxyl groups are consumed by the polyoxometalate protons, resulting in water formation and the creation of a covalent bond between the polyoxometalate and the surface, and mostly no remaining acidic proton on the polyoxomet...

A polyoxometalate-silver ethynide composite cluster, [Ag42(CO3){C≡CC(CH3)3}27(α-A-SiW9Nb3O40)2](-) (1), demonstrates that we can select the binding site of a polyoxometalate to the silver alkynide cluster by tuning the surface charge of the precursor polyoxometalate. Multidimensional and multinuclear NMR spectra revealed that 1 maintains its precise atomic connectivity in the solution.

The spontaneous self-assembly of hierarchical polyoxometalate-based nanostructures on a range carbon surfaces is demonstrated via the use amphiphilic hybrid-polyoxometalate building blocks.

Increased hydrophobicity of well-defined polyoxometalate clusters is possible through complexation with cationic surfactants in a one-pot reaction. The clusters, of toroid and spherical shape and colloidal dimensions, then organized into ordered, supramolecular assemblies, as shown schematically, are similar to classical liquid crystals. The increased solubility in organic media opens the door ...

The reaction of a saddle-distorted Mo(v)-dodecaphenylporphyrin complex and a Keggin-type polyoxometalate gives a discrete and nanosized molecule, [{Mo(DPP)(O)}(2)(H(2)SiW(12)O(40))], which involves direct coordination between the Mo(v) centers and terminal oxo groups of the polyoxometalate and exhibits excellent stability in solution to show reversible multi-redox processes.

A manganese(III)-substituted polyoxometalate of the "sandwich" structure, [MnIII2ZnW(ZnW9O34)2]10-, catalyzed the highly selective (>99.9%) epoxidation of alkenes, such as 1-octene, 2-octene, and cyclohexene with nitrous oxide. Reactions occurred in homogeneous media at 150 degrees C under 1 atm N2O. The epoxidation had a linear reaction profile; turnover frequencies of 0.5-1.4 h-1 were measure...

A family of polyoxometalate-based magnetic compounds were synthesized by anchoring N-oxide type TEMPO radicals onto an Anderson polyoxometalate cluster.

We have encapsulated the polyoxoanions [P2W18O62](6-) and [P2W15V3O62](9-) in a self-assembled carboxy-methyl-chitosan (CMC) hydrogel, exhibiting a regular superstructure in water at physiological pH. We performed stability studies as a function of temperature and polyoxometalate (POM) loading, and observed exceptional Tgel properties. This work is a step forward towards developing biologically...
