Rational synthesis of elusive organic-inorganic hybrid metal-oxo clusters: formation and post-functionalization of hexavanadates.

ABSTRACT: Paving the way towards new functional materials relies increasingly on the challenging task of forming organic-inorganic hybrid compounds. In that regard, discrete atomically-precise metal-oxo nanoclusters have received increasing attention due to the wide range of organic moieties that can be grafted onto them through functionalization reactions. The Lindqvist hexavanadate family of clusters, such as [V₆O₁₃{(OCH₂)₃C-R}₂]^2- (V₆-R), is particularly interesting due to the magnetic, redox, and catalytic properties of these clusters. However, compared to other metal-oxo cluster types, V₆-R clusters have been less extensively explored, which is mainly due to poorly understood synthetic challenges and the lim
