Self-assembly and photocatalytic H2 evolution activity of two nanoscale polytantalotungstates based on unprecedented {Cr3Ta6} and {Cr4Ta12} clusters

Abstract

Two nanoscale polytantalotungstates (POTTs), Cs5K4{Cr3[Ta3P2W15O62]2(H2O)12}·15H2O (1) and Cs8.5K8Na2H5.5{Cr4[Ta3P2W15O62]4(H2O)12}·53H2O (2), based on unprecedented {Cr3Ta6} and {Cr4Ta12} clusters, respectively, were hydrothermally synthesized. A photocatalytic study revealed that 1 and 2 exhibit significant photocatalytic water splitting activities.
