We report the synthesis of hybrid supercapacitor electrodes by a novel reduction of GO with simultaneous incorporation of polyoxometalate. These hybrids show a 30% increase in specific capacitance and excellent stability after 10,000 cycles.

A "sandwich" type polyoxometalate catalyst ([MeN(n-C8H17)3]12[WZn3(ZnW9O34)2]) was very efficiently recycled by nanofiltration with almost quantitative retention, using an alpha-alumina supported mesoporous gamma-alumina membrane.

A terpyridine ligand is covalently linked to a hexamolybdate cluster through the Mo-N imido bond, paving the way for the preparation of hybrids containing covalently bonded transition metal complexes and polyoxometalate clusters.

in multi-step organic syntheses, the protection and deprotection of tetrahydropyranyl (thp) ethers is one of the most frequently used methods. over the years, different methods have been used from various catalytic systems for the protection of hydroxyl groups as thp ethers and their deprotection. herein we have reported that various alcohols and phenols have been efficiently converted to the c...

Ligand modification transforms a polyoxometalate-anchored cubane-type [Mn(III)(3)Mn(IV)O(4)] core into a centrosymmetric [Mn(III)(6)Mn(IV)O(8)] di-cubane cluster, and restores the slow magnetization relaxation characteristics typical for [Mn(4)O(4)] cubane-based single-molecule magnets.

Herein, we show a new photomagnetic system that gives rise to the magnetic transformation from diamagnetism to paramagnetism by photoinduced intramolecular charge transfer in the polyoxometalate-based organic-inorganic hybrid, [(VMo6O22)2{O2C(CH2)2CO2}3] (1).

A three-component supramolecular hybrid system based on host-guest recognition and electrostatic interaction has been developed for a consecutive chiral transfer from an alpha-cyclodextrin to cationic dyes via the bridge of a new azobenzene-grafted Anderson-type polyoxometalate cluster.

A mesoporous ionic crystal is synthesized with a polyoxometalate and a macrocation with polar cyano groups. The compound possesses one-dimensional mesopores with an opening of 3.0 × 2.0 nm. The compound shows high proton conductivity and catalytic activity, which are due to the water molecules in the mesopores.

The discovery of gigantic molecular nanostructures like coordination and polyoxometalate clusters is extremely time-consuming since a vast combinatorial space needs to be searched, and even a systematic and exhaustive exploration of the available synthetic parameters relies on a great deal of serendipity. Here we present a synthetic methodology that combines a flow reaction array and algorithmi...

Ru nanoparticles loaded on a Keggin-type polyoxometalate (Cs(3)PW(12)O(40)), which did not possess strong intrinsic acidity, efficiently catalysed the conversions of cellobiose and cellulose into sorbitol in water medium in H(2) at ≤433 K. The Brønsted acid sites generated in situ from H(2) have been demonstrated to play a key role in the formation of sorbitol.
