A discrete conglomerate of a distorted Mo(v)-porphyrin with a directly coordinated Keggin-type polyoxometalate.
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.
