A decatungstate-type polyoxoniobate with centered manganese: [H2Mn(IV)Nb10O32]8- as a soluble tetramethylammonium salt.
A highly symmetric Mn(IV)-centered polyoxoniobate [H2Mn(IV)Nb10O32](8-) was synthesized via hydrothermal methods as a soluble tetramethylammonium salt. The structure is similar to decatungstate structure [W10O32](4-), except for the central heteroatom. The cluster is stable between 4 < pH < 10, as was characterized with ESI-MS and UV-Vis spectroscopy.
