title: Methoxide of an Anderson-type polyoxometalate and its conversion to a new type of species, [IMo9O32(OH)(OH2)3]4-.
abstract: A totally new type of polyoxometalate, [IMo(9)O(32)(OH)(OH(2))(3)](4)(-), has been synthesized by reacting [IMo(6)O(22)(OMe)(2)](3)(-) with water. The [IMo(9)O(32)(OH)(OH(2))(3)](4)(-) anion further transforms into [(IMo(7)O(26))(2)](6)(-), a molecular oxide that has a rutile core, in dry acetonitrile, while it stays intact for several hours in wet acetonitrile.
