Molecular supertetrahedron decorated with exposed sulfonate groups built from mixed-valence tetranuclear Fe3(3+)Fe(2+)(mu3-Omicron)(mu3-SO4)3(-CO2)3 clusters.
We present the synthesis and characterization of a novel metal-organic molecular solid using the ligand 4,8-disulfonaphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid. The solid features a sulfonated, isolated supertetrahedra, [Fe(16)Omicron(4)(SO(4))(12)(L2)(6)], built from mixed-valence [Fe(3)(3+)Fe(2+)(mu(3)-Omicron)(mu(3)-SO(4))(3)(-CO(2))(3)] clusters.
