Abstract

Two new Keggin-polyoxometalate hybrids, {[Cu2(4,4′-bpy)2][PW10VIW2VO40]}[Cu2(obpy)2]4 · 2 H2O (1) and {[Cu4(2,2′-bpy)4(4,4′-bpy)3][SiW12O40]} · 2H2O (2) (4,4′-/2,2′-bpy = 4,4′-/2,2′-bipyridyl, Hobpy = 6-hydroxy-2,2′-bipyridyl), were hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Gillard type hydration of 2,2′-bipy is observed during the synthesis of 1, resulting in a new obpy ligand in situ. X-ray structural analyses show that 1 consists of 1D hybrid chain {[Cu2(4,4′-bpy)2][PW10VIW2VO40]} and [Cu2(obpy)2] dimer, whereas 2 possesses 1D hybrid structure based on Keggin-type [SiW12O40]4- anions and tetra-nuclear copper complexes [Cu4(2,2′-bpy)4(4,4′-bpy)3]4+. Both compounds present interesting supramolecular architectures based on π-π stacking and hydrogen bonds.
