Abstract

The synthesis and structural characterization of the neutral mixed-valence methoxo- polyoxovanadium cluster [V6O8 (OCH3) 11](1) and its single oxidation product in the hexachloroantimonate salt [V6O8 (OCH3) 11][SbCl6](2) are presented here. The cluster comprises a hexauclear polyoxovanadate core of the Lindqvist structure, of which all but one of the μ-bridging oxo ligands are substituted by methoxo. As revealed by cyclic ...
