Abstract

A novel Zr-substituted polyoxometalate (POM) H2K3[Na6(H2O)9][Zr3Na3O3(H2O)3- (GeW9O34)2]·12H2O (1) has been made under hydrothermal conditions. 1 was characterized by infrared spectrum, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data are: H50O95Na9K3Ge2Zr3W(1)8, hexagonal space group P63/mmc, a = 15.2251(6), b = 15.2251(6), c = 25.035(2) Å, V = 5025.7(6) Å3, Z = 2, Dc = 3.716 mg/m3, μ = 21.648 mm-1, F(000) = 4726, the final R = 0.0259 and wR = 0.0647 for 1487 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that 1 exhibits a 3-dimensional framework structure based on Zr3Na3-substituted polyanions [Zr3Na3O3(H2O)3(GeW9O34)2]11- and [Na6(H2O)9]6+ clusters building blocks. UV-Vis spectrum indicates that 1 is a wide-gap semiconductor. In addition, the proton-conducting property of 1 was also investigated.
