K 8 Cs 3 Na[(Lu(GeW 11 O 39 )(H 2 O)) 2 (-CH 3 COO) 2 ]·18H 2 O (KCsNa-23)
The same procedure as KCsNa-21 was followed, except for using 0.067 g LuCl 3·6 H 2 O and
adding of 0.5 mL of 0.5M CsCl (aq) to the filtrate. Yield: 0.763 g (55 %). IR data for KCs-23:
1625(m), 1530(m), 1459(m), 1397(w), 1351(sh), 950(s), 893(s), 809(s), 779(sh), 746(w),
678(s), 615(sh), 526(m), 497(sh), 466(m), 446(w) cm -1 (see Figure 3.37). Anal. Calcd for
KCsNa-23: K, 4.5; Na, 0.33; Cs, 5.6; Ge, 2.1; W, 57.5; Lu, 5.1; C, 0.69; H, 0.72. Found: K,
4.5; Na, 0.1; Cs, 5.2; Ge, 2.1; W, 60.2; Lu, 5.1; C, 0.75; H, 0.73.
For the compounds K-21 – KCsNa-23, the bands in the range from 1000 – 400 cm -1 represent
the fingerprint region of the polyoxometalate ligand, while the region from 1351 – 1530 cm -1
correspond to the acetate ligands bridged to the metal centers (Figure 3.37). 1a,4
Elemental analyses were carried out by Zentralabteilung für chemische Analysen,
Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Jülich, Germany.
