title: Solvolytic routes to new nonabismuth hydroxy- and alkoxy-oxo complexes: synthesis, characterization and solid-state structures of novel nonabismuth polyoxo cations Bi9(mu3-O)8(mu3-OR)6 5+ (R = H, Et).
abstract: Base hydrolysis of BiO(ClO4) yields ClO4- salts of the novel nonabismuth polyoxo cation Bi9(mu3-O)8(mu3-OH)6(5+); ethanolysis converts to the ethoxide Bi9(mu3-O)8(mu3-OEt)6(5+).
