title: DMAP-catalyzed esterification of pentaerythritol-derivatized POMs: a new route for the functionalization of polyoxometalates.
abstract: We have demonstrated that a pentaerythritol-derivatized hexavanadate can be easily esterified with acid anhydrides using 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) as a catalyst, which provides a convenient method for the functionalization of polyoxometalates.
