title: Synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity of a Wilkinson's type metal-organic-polyoxometalate hybrid compound.
abstract: A metal-organic-polyoxometalate hybrid compound with two functional centers consisting of a rhodium(I)bis(diphenylphospine) unit connected through two alkylene bridging groups to a lacunary Keggin type polyoxometalate was synthesized and used as an effective, recyclable hydrogenation catalyst in monophasic and aqueous biphasic reaction modes.
