Two organic–inorganic hybrid 1-D and 3-D polyoxotungstates constructed from hexa-CuII substituted sandwich-type arsenotungstate units

Abstract

Two organic–inorganic hybrid hexa-CuII substituted sandwich-type arsenotungstates [Cu(en)2(H2O)]2 [Cu(en)2][Cu6(en)2(H2O)2(B-α-AsW9O34)2]·en·9H2O (1) and [Cu(dap)2]3[Cu6(dap)2(H2O)2(B-α-AsW9O34)2]·4H2O (2) (en = ethylenediamine, dap = 1,2-diaminopropane) have been hydrothermally prepared and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1 is an organic–inorganic hybrid 1-D chain constructed from hexa-CuII substituted [Cu6(en)2(H2O)2(B-α-AsW9O34)2]6− sandwich-type units and [Cu(en)2]2+ linkers whereas 2 shows the six-connected 3-D extended framework built by hexa-CuII sandwiched [Cu6(dap)2(H2O)2(B-α-AsW9O34)2]6− units and [Cu(dap)2]2+ connectors. To our knowledge, 1 and 2 represent the first organic–inorganic hybrid high-dimensional arsenotungstates containing hexa-CuII sandwiched polyoxometalate units. The results of magnetic susceptibility measurements demonstrate that 1 and 2 indicates the ferromagnetic couplings within CuII centers. The photocatalytic measurements illustrate that 1 and 2 can to some extent inhibit the photodegradation of rhodamine-B (RhB).
