title: Hexanuclear tin(ii) and mixed valence tin(ii,iv) oxide clusters within polyoxometalates.
abstract: A hexanuclear mixed valence tin oxide cluster [Sn3(2+)Sn3(4+)O15](12-) was successfully synthesized by the solution-state selective oxidation of a tin oxide cluster [Sn6(2+)O12](12-) within trivacant lacunary polyoxometalates, where lone pairs on the Sn(2+) species acted as stereochemically active sites.
