Abstract

Controlled reductive assembly of capped Keggin anions [PMo₁₂O₄₀(ML_m)_n]³⁻ has been achieved by reduction of [PMo₁₂O₄₀]³⁻ with sodium-mercury amalgam in the presence of metal halides, as exemplified by the rational syntheses of mono-capped [PMo₁₂O₄₀{Co(MeCN)₂}]³⁻ and bi-capped [PMo₁₂O₄₀(VO)₂]³⁻ and [PMo₁₂O₄₀Sb₂]³⁻.
