The polyoxo-22-palladate(ii), [Na2Pd II22O12(AsVO4)15(AsVO3OH)]25− †
Abstract
The polyoxo-22-palladate [Na2PdII22O12(AsVO4)15(AsVO3OH)]25− (1), which represents a novel polyoxo-noble-metalate structural type, was synthesized by reaction of Pd2+ and AsO43− ions in aqueous solution. Polyanion 1 comprises two {NaPd11} units linked by two arsenate bridges, and hence represents the first example of a defect, monolacunary {Pd11} polyoxopalladate nanocube with arsenate capping groups. The title polyanion was characterized in the solid state as well as by theoretical calculations.
