Abstract:
Three monomeric polyoxometalates [M(C10H8N2)(3)][-PMoVI9MoV3O(40)Zn(2)(C10H8N2)(2)]2H(2)O (M-PMo12Zn2, M = Fe, Co, Ru) with {Zn(bpy)(2)}(2+) units capped on reduced -Keggin polyanions and [M(bpy)(3)](2+) counter-ions were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The 1D polymer [N(C4H9)(4)][Ru(C10H8N2)(3)][-PMoVI8MoV6O(43)] (Ru-PMo14) was prepared by a similar strategy, in the absence of 2,2-bpy ligands. In this chain capped reduced Keggin anions are linked via Mo-O-Mo bridges and are surrounded by both tetrabutylammonium cations and [Ru(bpy)(3)](2+) counter-ions. The compounds were characterized in the solid state by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy and in solution by P-31 NMR spectroscopy. P-31 diffusion ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY) indicates that the diffusion coefficient of the dissolved species of Ru-PMo14 corresponds to a dimeric structure. Magnetic susceptibility measurements performed on Ru-PMo14 show the existence of antiferromagnetic interactions between the d(1) electrons of the six Mo-V centers, with a singlet spin ground state. However, attempts to fit the data in the 2-300 K temperature range with Heisenberg Hamiltonians adapted for 0 or 1D systems suggest that these electrons are delocalized. Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Wave Function Theory (WFT) calculations indicate a migration of the electrons of the capping Mo-V centers into the PMo12 units at high temperature, allowing the rationalization of the experimental observations.
