Abstract:
Six new hybrids based on β-[Mo₈O26]4- polyoxometalates, [Ni(H₂biim)₃]₂[β-Mo₈O26]•8DMF(1); (DMA)₂[M(H₂biim)₂(H₂O)₂][β-Mo₈O26]•4DMF (M = Ni (2), Co (3)), DMA = dimethyl-ammonium, H₂biim=2,2'-biimidazole); [M(H₂biim)(DMF)₃]₂[β-Mo₈O26]•2DMF (M = Zn (4), Cu (5)); [(DMA)₂[Cu(DMF)₄][β-Mo₈O26]•2DMF]n (6), have been successfully synthesized and characterized. Compounds 2⁻5 show favorable capacity to adsorb methylene blue (MB) at room temperature, and they can selectively capture MB molecules from binary-mixture solutions of MB/MO (MO = Methyl Orange), or MB/RhB (RhB = Rhodamine B). Compound 3 can uptake up to 521.7 mg g-1 MB cationic dyes rapidly, which perform the maximum adsorption in an hour among the reported materials as far as we know. The compounds are stable and still work very efficiently after three cycles. For compound 3, the preliminary adsorption mechanism studies indicated that the adsorption is an ion exchange process and the adsorption behavior of polyoxometalate-complex can be benefited from additional exchangeable protons in the complex cations.
