Sandwich-type zinc-containing polyoxometalates with a hexaprismane core [{Zn2W(O)O3}2]4+ synthesized by thermally induced isomerization of a metastable polyoxometalate.
Two novel sandwich-type silicotungstates, TBA(8)[{Zn(2)W(O)O(3)}(2)H(4){α-SiW(9)O(33)}(2)]·5H(2)O (α-Zn4; TBA = tetra-n-butylammonium) and TBA(8)[{Zn(2)W(O)O(3)}(2)H(4){β-SiW(9)O(33)}(2)]·7H(2)O (β-Zn4), were synthesized by the solid-state thermally induced isomerization of metastable TBA(8)[{Zn(OH(2))(μ(3)-OH)}(2){Zn(OH(2))(2)}(2){γ-HSiW(10)O(36)}(2)]·9H(2)O (γ-Zn4). Compounds α-Zn4 and β-Zn4 consisted of two [SiW(9)O(33)](8-) subunits sandwiching the unprecedented distorted hexaprismane core [{Zn(2)W(O)O(3)}(2)](4+).
