Abstract:
Five new hybrid compounds based on Keggin polyanions, Ag(+)/Cu(+) ions and 1,3-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propane (btp) molecules have been hydrothermally synthesized. In [Ag(5)(btp)(4)(H(2)O)(2)][PCuW(11)O(39)]·2H(2)O (1), [Ag(4.33)Na(0.67)(btp)(4)(H(2)O)(2)][PMnMo(11)O(39)]·H(2)O (2) and [Cu(4)(btp)(4)Na(H(2)O)(2)][PMnMo(11)O(39)]·2H(2)O (3), the neighboring mono-substituted Keggin clusters are alternately connected via sharing oxygen atoms to form an unusual Keggin-based transition-metal monosubstituted chain, in which the Keggin cluster serves as a decadentate ligand and grafts ten metal atoms representing the highest connected number for Keggin cluster and forming a 3D framework. In [Ag(5)(btp)(4)][PW(VI)(10)W(V)(2)O(40)] (4) and [Ag(5)(btp)(4)][PMo(VI)(10)Mo(V)(2)O(40)] (5), two-electron reduced Keggin clusters as hexadentate linkages are inserted in the rhomboid-like tunnels of the Ag-btp framework and connect with the framework via six Ag-O bonds to achieve 3D motifs, which are new and rare examples of heteropoly blue based hybrid compounds. The successful synthesis of the five high-dimensional structures may provide a feasible route for us to approach 3D polyoxometalate-based hybrids by using substituted Keggin anions and heteropoly blues with high charge density. Furthermore, photocatalytic experiments indicate that both 1 and 4 have good activities for photocatalytic degradation of RhB under UV irradiation. The luminescent properties of compounds 1-5 in the solid state were also investigated.

Pore Transport and Ion-Pair Transport
Pore transport, also known as convective transport, is a process where small molecules like urea, water, and sugars rapidly cross cell membranes as though there were channels or pores in the membrane. Although direct microscopic evidence is limited but the concept of pores or channels is widely accepted based on physiological evidence. Despite the lack of direct microscopic...
