Abstract

A heterometallic hexameric germanotungstate containing iron-lanthanide cluster fragments (enH2)13HK9[Fe 6Sm6(H2O)12(α-GeW 10O38)6]·42H2O (1) and a hexairon substituted double sandwich-type germanotungstate (enH 2)6K[HFe6(B-α-GeW9O 34)2(α-GeW6O26)(H 2O)2]·11H2O (2) (en = 1,2-ethylenediamine) have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized using elemental analyses, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, IR spectra, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), thermogravimetric (TG) analyses and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The common features of 1 and 2 are that both are based on lacunary Keggin-type germanotungstate fragments. 1 is the first heterometallic hexameric germanotungstate consisting of six {Fe-(μ3-O)3-Sm} bridges, while two double sandwich-type fragments in 2 are connected together through two potassium cations forming hexameric germanotungstate units. The magnetic susceptibility measurements demonstrate the presence of antiferromagnetic interactions in both compounds.
