phate leading to a trimeric-capped type structure with nominal C 3v symmetry.<br />
Interaction <strong>of</strong> solid TiO(SO 4 ) with [γ-SiW 10 O 36 ] 8− in an aqueous acidic medium resulted<br />
in a novel, tetrameric polyoxometalate [β-Ti 2 SiW 10 O 39 ] 4 ] 24− (11).It has been characterized<br />
by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy <strong>and</strong> elemental analysis.<br />
Single-crystal X-ray analysis <strong>of</strong> the compound showed that it crystallizes in monoclinic<br />
system, space group P 2 1 /n, a = 12.5188(13) Å, b = 18.864(2) Å, c = 41.075(4) Å, β<br />
= 97.450(2) ◦ Z = 2. The polyanion is composed <strong>of</strong> four β-Ti 2 SiW 10 O 39 Keggin fragments<br />
that are linked via Ti-O-Ti bridges leading to a cyclic assembly. The solid-state<br />
structure <strong>of</strong> K 24 [(β-Ti 2 SiW 10 O 39 ) 4 ]·50H 2 O shows face-by-face self assembled polyanions<br />
(K-11) along the crystallographic ‘a’ axis, which leads to a nanotube-like arrangement.<br />
The cadmium(II)-substituted tungstoarsenate [Cd 4 Cl 2 (B-α-AsW 9 O 34 ) 2 ] 12− (12) has<br />
been synthesized <strong>and</strong> characterized in the solid state by XRD, FTIR spectroscopy, elemental<br />
analysis <strong>and</strong> 183 W <strong>and</strong> 111 Cd NMR spectroscopy. Single crystal X-ray analysis<br />
<strong>of</strong> Cs 4 K 3 Na 5 [Cd 4 Cl 2 (B-α-AsW 9 O 34 ) 2 ]·20H 2 O (CsKNa-12), shows that it crystallizes in<br />
the monoclinic system, space group P 2 1 /n, with a = 13.1402(12) Å, b = 19.0642(17) Å,<br />
c = 17.5666(15) Å, β = 90.274(2) ◦ <strong>and</strong> Z = 2. Polyanion (9) consists <strong>of</strong> two lacunary<br />
[B-α-AsW 9 O 34 ] 10− Keggin moieties linked via a rhomb like (Cd 4 O 14 Cl 2 ) cluster leading to<br />
a s<strong>and</strong>wich-type structure. Interestingly, the two external Cd atoms each have a terminal<br />
Cl lig<strong>and</strong>, but the derivative have terminal water lig<strong>and</strong>s, [Cd 4 (H 2 O) 2 (B-α-AsW 9 O 34 ) 2 ] 10−<br />
(13), which has been proved by 183 W <strong>and</strong> 111 Cd NMR spectroscopy.<br />
The indium(III)-substituted polyanions [In 3 Cl 2 (B-α-PW 9 O 34 ) 2 ] 11− (14), [In 3 Cl 2 (P 2 W 15<br />
O 56 ) 2 ] 17− (15), [In 4 (H 2 O) 10 ( β-AsW 9 O 32 OH) 2 ] 4− (16) <strong>and</strong> [In 4 (H 2 O) 10 (β-SbW 9 O 33 ) 2 ] 6−<br />
(17) have been synthesized <strong>and</strong> characterized in the solid state by FTIR spectroscopy<br />
<strong>and</strong> elemental analysis <strong>and</strong> 183 W-NMR. Single-crystal X-ray analysis showed that D,L-<br />
(NH 4 ) 11 [In 3 Cl 2 (B-α-PW 9 O 34 ) 2 ]·16H 2 O (NH4-14) showed that it crystallizes in the monoclinic<br />
system, space group P 2 1 /n, with a = 17.5090(10) Å, b = 12.7361(7) Å, c =<br />
18.7955(11) Å, β = 107.3030(10) ◦ , <strong>and</strong> Z = 2;<br />
D,L- (NH 4 ) 9 Na 8 [In 3 Cl 2 (P 2 W 15 O 56 ) 2 ]·39H 2 O (NH4Na-15) crystallizes in the triclinic system,<br />
space group P ¯1, with a = 13.0643(5) Å, b = 14.8901(6) Å, c = 19.8603(8) Å, α<br />
= 92.2920(10) ◦ , β = 90.8680(10) ◦ , γ = 100.5630(10) ◦ , <strong>and</strong> Z = 1; RbNa 3 [In 4 (H 2 O) 10 (βiv
