Construction of a General Library for the Rational Design of Nanomagnets and Spin Qubits Based on Mononuclear f-Block Complexes. The Polyoxometalate …
2014
This paper belongs to a series of contributions aiming at establishing a general library that helps in the description of the crystal field (CF) effect of any ligand on the splitting of the J ground states of mononuclear f-element complexes. Here, the effective parameters associated with the oxo ligands (effective charges and metal-ligand distances) are extracted from the study of the magnetic properties of the first two families of single-ion magnets based on lanthanoid polyoxometalates (POMs), formulated as [Ln(W5O18)2](9-) and [Ln(β2-SiW11O39)2](13-) (Ln = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb). This effective CF approach provides a good description of the lowest-lying magnetic levels and the associate…
Enhanced (photo)catalytic activity of Wells-Dawson (H6P2W18O62) in comparison to Keggin (H3PW12O40) heteropolyacids for 2-propanol dehydration in gas…
2016
Abstract Catalytic and photocatalytic 2-propanol dehydration to propene at atmospheric pressure and a temperature range of 60–120 °C were carried out in gas-solid regime by using bare and supported Keggin H 3 PW 12 O 40 (PW 12 ) and Wells-Dawson H 6 P 2 W 18 O 62 (P 2 W 18 ) heteropolyacids (HPAs). Binary materials were prepared by impregnation of the HPAs on commercial SiO 2 and TiO 2 . The Wells-Dawson was in any case more active than the Keggin heteropolyacid and the differences were enhanced when the supported samples were used. In particular, Wells-Dawson HPA supported on TiO 2 and under irradiation showed the highest activity. The HPA species played the key role both in the catalytic …
Polyoxometalates in Langmuir–Blodgett films: toward new magnetic materials
1998
Abstract Polyoxometalates having various structures and properties can be organized by the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) technique. The adsorption of such polyanions along a positively charged monolayer of DODA (dimethyldioctadecylammonium) induces large changes in the compression isotherm and enables the transfer of the Langmuir film onto solid substrate. X-ray diffraction and infrared dichroism experiments demonstrate that the polyoxometalates are organized in monolayers within the LB films. Furthermore, these magnetic multilayers were characterized by their paramagnetic susceptibility measured by a SQUID magnetometer.
Polyoxometalate Monolayers in Langmuir-Blodgett Films
2005
Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of a variety of polyoxometalates of different shapes, sizes, and charges were prepared by taking advantage of the adsorption properties of these polyanions on a positively charged monolayer of an organic surfactant spread on water. Three different aspects were investigated. 1) The electrochemical and electrochromic properties of LB films containing the easily reducible polyoxoanion [P2Mo18O62]6-. Absorbance changes of these LB films deposited onto an ITO substrate have been induced by repeated switching of the applied potential. These changes are due to the formation of the colored reduced forms of the polyanion. Coloration and bleaching of the LB f…
Incorporation of CrIII into a Keggin Polyoxometalate as a Chemical Strategy to Stabilize a Labile {CrIIIO4} Tetrahedral Conformation and Promote Unat…
2020
Polyoxometalates (POMs) provide rigid and highly symmetric coordination sites and can be used as a strategy for the stabilization of magnetic ions. Herein, we report a new member of the Keggin archetype, the Cr-centered Keggin anion [α-CrW12O40]5– (CrW12), with the unusual tetrahedral coordination of CrIII reported for the first time in POMs conferring unattended magnetic properties. POM chemistry has recently presented excellent examples of single-molecule and single-ion magnets (SMMs and SIMs) as well as molecular spin qubits; however, the majority of POM-based SIMs reported to date contain lanthanoid ions. CrW12, as the first example of a chromium(III) SIM, exhibits slow relaxation of ma…
Mononuclear lanthanide single molecule magnets based on the polyoxometalates [Ln(W5O18)2]9- and [Ln(beta2-SiW11O39)2]13- (Ln(III) = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, T…
2009
The first two families of polyoxometalate-based single-molecule magnets (SMMs) are reported here. Compounds of the general formula [Ln(W(5)O(18))(2)](9-) (Ln(III) = Tb, Dy, Ho, and Er) and [Ln(SiW(11)O(39))(2)](13-) (Ln(III) = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Yb) have been magnetically characterized with static and dynamic measurements. Slow relaxation of the magnetization, typically associated with SMM-like behavior, was observed for [Ln(W(5)O(18))(2)](9-) (Ln(III) = Ho and Er) and [Ln(SiW(11)O(39))(2)](13-) (Ln(III) = Dy, Ho, Er, and Yb). Among them, only the [Er(W(5)O(18))(2)](9-) derivative exhibited such a behavior above 2 K with an energy barrier for the reversal of the magnetization of 55 K. …
Co-crystallization of Keggin type polyoxometalates [HL]3[PW12O40] and [Ln(DMF)8][PW12O40] (Ln=La, Dy, Yb) (L=N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methoxy-salicylide…
2016
Abstract Four new Keggin type polyoxometalate clusters [HL]3[PW12O40]·5MeOH (1) and [Ln(DMF)8][PW12O40] {Ln = La (2), Dy (3), Yb (4)} (L = N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-methoxy-salicylideneamine) have been synthesized. Co-crystallization of complex 1 with each of the three complexes 2–4 takes place when the Schiff base ligand is treated with hydrated phosphotungstic acid, H3[PW12O40]·xH2O, hydrated lanthanide nitrate, Ln(NO3)3·6H2O in the presence of Ni(NO3)2·6H2O. The Schiff base ligand is protonated in complex 1 and thus it is neutralizing the charge of the polyoxotungstate anion, [PW12O40]3−. A dimethylformamide (DMF) coordinated trivalent lanthanide ion balances the negative charge of the polyo…
Single ion magnets based on lanthanoid polyoxomolybdate complexes
2016
Polyoxometalate (POM) chemistry has recently offered excellent examples of single ion magnets (SIMs) and molecular spin qubits. Compared with conventional coordination compounds, POMs provide rigid and highly symmetric coordination sites. However, all POM-based SIMs reported to date exhibit a very limited range of possibilities for chemical processability. We present herein two new families of POM-based SIMs which are soluble in organic solvents: [Ln(β-Mo8O26)2]5− {LnIII = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm and Yb} and the functionalised POMs [Ln{Mo5O13(OMe)4NNC6H4-p-NO2}2]3− {LnIII = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Yb and Nd}. In addition, these two families represent the first SIMs based on polyoxomolybdates. A magneto-…
Light-induced decarboxylation in a photo-responsive iron-containing complex based on polyoxometalate and oxalato ligands.

A new iron-oxalato polyoxometalate exhibits a remarkable photocoloration effect in the solid state based entirely on an intramolecular process.
Electrochromic polyoxometalate material as a sensor of bacterial activity
2015
L. fermentum, a bacterium of human microbiota, acts as an electron donor to the electrochromic [P2MoVI18O62]6. Since, the reductive capacity of L. fermentum correlates with its metabolic activity, the reaction with [P2MoVI18O62]6- affords a means of evaluating its activity. Following this logic, we have concluded that vancomycin severely affects the activity of L. fermentum whereas omeprazole does not.
