Photogeneration of two reduction-active charge-separated states in a hybrid crystal of polyoxometalates and naphthalene diimides†
Abstract
The combination of naphthalene diimide tectons with zinc cations in the presence of polyanions, Mo6O192−, leads to a hybrid crystal composed of two-dimensional porous coordination networks and polyoxometalates, which can generate two kinds of long-lived charge-separated states for the reduction reactions upon irradiation.
