A new polyoxo–alkoxo titanium cluster of the Keggin family: synthesis and characterization by X-ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopy

Abstract

The new [Ti₁₇O₂₄(OPrⁱ)₂₀] cluster 1, that can be described as a non-charged lacunar super-Keggin complex, adopts a pseudo-D_2d symmetry as established by X-ray diffraction and solution NMR studies.
