Merging the chemistry of metal–organic and polyoxometalate clusters to form enhanced photocatalytic materials

Abstract

The combination of a zirconium metal–organic cluster and a Keggin type polyoxotungstate into a compound of the formula [Zr63-O)43-OH)4(μ-OOCC6H5)8(H2O)8][SiW12O40] led to a chemically and photochemically stable material in which a synergistic effect between the metal–organic cluster and the polyoxometalate allows marked enhancement of the photochemical activity of the single ionic components toward the photooxidation of dyes.
