The phosphotungstate anion, an example of a polyoxometalate

In chemistry, a polyoxometalate (abbreviated POM) is a polyatomic ion, usually an anion, that consists of three or more transition metal oxyanions linked together by shared oxygen atoms to form closed 3-dimensional frameworks. The metal atoms are usually group 6 (Mo, W) or less commonly group 5 (V, Nb, Ta) and group 7 (Tc, Re) transition metals in their high oxidation states. Polyoxometalates are often colorless, orange or red diamagnetic anions. Two broad families are recognized, isopolymetalates, composed of only one kind of metal and oxide, and heteropolymetalates, composed of one or more metals, oxide, and eventually a main group oxyanion (phosphate, silicate, etc.). Many exceptions to these general statements exist. [1] [2]

Formation

The oxides of d0 metals such as V2O5, MoO3, WO3 dissolve at high pH to give orthometalates, VO3−4, MoO2−4, WO2−4. For Nb2O5 and Ta2O5, the nature of the dissolved species at high pH is less clear, but these oxides also form polyoxometalates. As the pH is lowered, orthometalates protonate to give oxide–hydroxide compounds such as WO3(OH) and VO3(OH)2−. These species condense via the process called olation. The replacement of terminal M=O bonds, which in fact have triple bond character, is compensated by the increase in coordination number. The nonobservation of polyoxochromate cages is rationalized by the small radius of Cr(VI), which may not accommodate octahedral coordination geometry. [1]

Condensation of the MO3(OH)n species entails loss of water and the formation of M−O−M linkages. The stoichiometry for hexamolybdate is shown: [3]

6 MoO2−4 + 10 HCl → [Mo6O19]2− + 10 Cl + 5 H2O

An abbreviated condensation sequence illustrated with vanadates is: [1] [4]

4 VO3−4 + 8 H+ → V4O4−12 + 4 H2O
5 V4O4−12 + 12 H+ → 2 V10O26(OH)4−2 + 4 H2O

When such acidifications are conducted in the presence of phosphate or silicate, heteropolymetalate result. For example, the phosphotungstate anion [PW12O40]3− consists of a framework of twelve octahedral tungsten oxyanions surrounding a central phosphate group.

Dr. James F. Keggin, the discoverer of the Keggin Structure.

Ammonium phosphomolybdate, [PMo12O40]3− anion, was reported in 1826. [5] The isostructural phosphotungstate anion was characterized by X-ray crystallography 1934. This structure is called the Keggin structure after its discoverer. [6]

The 1970s witnessed the introduction of quaternary ammonium salts of POMs. [3] This innovation enabled systematic study without the complications of hydrolysis and acid/base reactions. The introduction of 17O NMR spectroscopy allowed the structural characterization of POMs in solution. [7]

Ramazzoite, the first example of a mineral with a polyoxometalate cation, was described in 2016 in Mt. Ramazzo Mine, Liguria, Italy. [8]

Structure and bonding

The typical framework building blocks are polyhedral units, with 6-coordinate metal centres. Usually, these units share edges and/or vertices. The coordination number of the oxide ligands varies according to their location in the cage. Surface oxides tend to be terminal or doubly bridging oxo ligands. Interior oxides are typically triply bridging or even octahedral. [1] POMs are sometimes viewed as soluble fragments of metal oxides. [7]

Recurring structural motifs allow POMs to be classified. Iso-polyoxometalates (isopolyanions) feature octahedral metal centers. The heteropolymetalates form distinct structures because the main group center is usually tetrahedral. The Lindqvist and Keggin structures are common motifs for iso- and heteropolyanions, respectively.

Polyoxometalates typically exhibit coordinate metal-oxo bonds of different multiplicity and strength. In a typical POM such as the Keggin structure [PW12O40]3−, each addenda center connects to single terminal oxo ligand, four bridging μ2-O ligands and one bridging μ3-O deriving from the central heterogroup. [9] Metal–metal bonds in polyoxometalates are normally absent and owing to this property, F. Albert Cotton opposed to consider polyoxometalates as form of cluster materials. [10] However, metal-metal bonds are not completely absent in polyoxometalates and they are often present among the highly reduced species. [11]

Polymolybdates and tungstates

The polymolybdates and polytungstates are derived, formally at least, from the dianionic [MO4]2- precursors. The most common units for polymolybdates and polyoxotungstates are the octahedral {MO6} centers, sometimes slightly distorted. Some polymolybdates contain pentagonal bipyramidal units. These building blocks are found in the molybdenum blues, which are mixed valence compounds. [1]

Polyoxotechnetates and rhenates

Polyoxotechnetates form only in strongly acidic conditions, such as in HTcO4 or trifluoromethanesulfonic acid solutions. The first empirically isolated polyoxotechnetate was the red [Tc20O68]4−. It contains both Tc(V) and Tc(VII) in ratio 4: 16 and is obtained as the hydronium salt [H7O3]4[Tc20O68]·4H2O by concentrating an HTcO4 solution. [12] Corresponding ammonium polyoxotechnetate salt was recently isolated from trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and it has very similar structure. [13] The only polyoxorhenate formed in acidic conditions in presence of pyrazolium cation. The first empirically isolated polyoxorhenate was the white [Re4O15]2−. It contains Re(VII) in both octahedral and tetrahedral coordination. [14]

Polyoxotantalates, niobates, and vanadates

The polyniobates, polytantalates, and vanadates are derived, formally at least, from highly charged [MO4]3- precursors. For Nb and Ta, most common members are M

19
(M = Nb, Ta), which adopt the Lindqvist structure. These octaanions form in strongly basic conditions from alkali melts of the extended metal oxides (M2O5), or in the case of Nb even from mixtures of niobic acid and alkali metal hydroxides in aqueous solution. The hexatantalate can also be prepared by condensation of peroxotantalate Ta(O

in alkaline media. [15] These polyoxometalates display an anomalous aqueous solubility trend of their alkali metal salts inasmuch as their Cs+ and Rb+ salts are more soluble than their Na+ and Li+ salts. The opposite trend is observed in group 6 POMs. [16]

The decametalates with the formula M

(M = Nb, [17] Ta [18] ) are isostructural with decavanadate. They are formed exclusively by edge-sharing {MO6} octahedra (the structure of decatungstate W

Polyoxomolybdates include the wheel-shaped molybdenum blue anions and spherical keplerates. The cluster [Mo154O420(NO)14(OH)28(H2O)70]20− consists of more than 700 atoms and is the size of a small protein. The anion is in the form of a tire (the cavity has a diameter of more than 20 Å) and an extremely large inner and outer surface. The incorporation of lanthanide ions in molybdenum blues is particularly intriguing. [19] Lanthanides can behave like Lewis acids and perform catalytic properties. [20] Lanthanide-containing polyoxometalates show chemoselectivity [21] and are also able to form inorganic–organic adducts, which can be exploited in chiral recognition. [22]

Oxoalkoxometalates

Oxoalkoxometalates are clusters that contain both oxide and alkoxide ligands. [23] Typically they lack terminal oxo ligands. Examples include the dodecatitanate Ti12O16(OPri)16 (where OPri stands for an alkoxy group), [24] the iron oxoalkoxometalates [25] and iron [26] and copper [27] Keggin ions.

Sulfido, imido, and other O-replaced oxometalates

The terminal oxide centers of polyoxometalate framework can in certain cases be replaced with other ligands, such as S2−, Br, and NR2−. [5] [28] Sulfur-substituted POMs are called polyoxothiometalates. Other ligands replacing the oxide ions have also been demonstrated, such as nitrosyl and alkoxy groups. [23] [29]

Polyfluoroxometalate are yet another class of O-replaced oxometalates. [30]

Use and aspirational applications

Oxidation catalysts

POMs are employed as commercial catalysts for oxidation of organic compounds. [35] [36]

Efforts continue to extend this theme. POM-based aerobic oxidations have been promoted as alternatives to chlorine-based wood pulp bleaching processes, [37] a method of decontaminating water, [38] and a method to catalytically produce formic acid from biomass (OxFA process). [39] Polyoxometalates have been shown to catalyse water splitting. [40]

Molecular electronics

Some POMs exhibit unusual magnetic properties, [41] which has prompted visions of many applications. One example is storage devices called qubits. [42] non-volatile (permanent) storage components, also known as flash memory devices. [43] [44]

Drugs

Potential antitumor and antiviral drugs. [45] The Anderson-type polyoxomolybdates and heptamolybdates exhibit activity for suppressing the growth of some tumors. In the case of (NH3Pr)6[Mo7O24], activity appears related to its redox properties. [46] [47] The Wells-Dawson structure can efficiently inhibit amyloid β (Aβ) aggregation in a therapeutic strategy for Alzheimer's disease. [48] [49] antibacterial [50] and antiviral uses.

Iron shows the characteristic chemical properties of the transition metals, namely the ability to form variable oxidation states differing by steps of one and a very large coordination and organometallic chemistry: indeed, it was the discovery of an iron compound, ferrocene, that revolutionalized the latter field in the 1950s.

Its 26 electrons are arranged in the configuration [Ar]3d64s2, of which the 3d and 4s electrons are relatively close in energy, and thus it can lose a variable number of electrons and there is no clear point where further ionization becomes unprofitable.

At normal pH, perrhenate exists as metaperrhenate, but at high pH mesoperrhenate forms.

A transition metal oxo complex is a coordination complex containing an oxo ligand. Formally O2-, an oxo ligand can be bound to one or more metal centers, i.e. it can exist as a terminal or (most commonly) as bridging ligands (Fig. 1). Oxo ligands stabilize high oxidation states of a metal. They are also found in several metalloproteins, for example in molybdenum cofactors and in many iron-containing enzymes. One of the earliest synthetic compounds to incorporate an oxo ligand is potassium ferrate (K2FeO4), which was likely prepared by Georg E. Stahl in 1702.

Metal acetylacetonates are coordination complexes derived from the acetylacetonate anion (CH

The simplest complexes have the formula M(acac)3 and M(acac)2. Mixed-ligand complexes, e.g. VO(acac)2, are also numerous. Variations of acetylacetonate have also been developed with myriad substituents in place of methyl (RCOCHCOR). Many such complexes are soluble in organic solvents, in contrast to the related metal halides. Because of these properties, acac complexes are sometimes used as catalyst precursors and reagents.

In chemistry, metal aquo complexes are coordination compounds containing metal ions with only water as a ligand. These complexes are the predominant species in aqueous solutions of many metal salts, such as metal nitrates, sulfates, and perchlorates. They have the general stoichiometry [M(H2O)n]z+. Their behavior underpins many aspects of environmental, biological, and industrial chemistry. This article focuses on complexes where water is the only ligand, but of course many complexes are known to consist of a mix of aquo and other ligands.

A metal ion in aqueous solution or aqua ion is a cation, dissolved in water, of chemical formula [M(H2O)n]z+. The solvation number, n, determined by a variety of experimental methods is 4 for Li+ and Be2+ and 6 for most elements in periods 3 and 4 of the periodic table. Lanthanide and actinide aqua ions have higher solvation numbers (often 8 to 9), with the highest known being 11 for Ac3+. The strength of the bonds between the metal ion and water molecules in the primary solvation shell increases with the electrical charge, z, on the metal ion and decreases as its ionic radius, r, increases. Aqua ions are subject to hydrolysis. The logarithm of the first hydrolysis constant is proportional to z2/r for most aqua ions.

In chemistry, molecular oxohalides (oxyhalides) are a group of chemical compounds in which both oxygen and halogen atoms are attached to another chemical element A in a single molecule.

The element A may be a main group element, a transition element, a rare earth element or an actinide. The term oxohalide, or oxyhalide, may also refer to minerals and other crystalline substances with the same overall chemical formula, but having an ionic structure.
