Dimensional Control in Polyoxometalate Crystals Hybridized with Amphiphilic Polymerizable Ionic Liquids.

ABSTRACT: Ionic liquids are an important component for constructing functional materials, and polyxometalate cluster anion is a promising partner for building inorganic-organic hybrid materials comprising ionic liquids. In such hybrid materials, the precise control of the molecular arrangement in the bulk structures is crucial for the emergence of characteristic functions, which can be realized by introducing an amphiphilic moiety into the ionic liquids. Here, an amphiphilic polymerizable imidazolium ionic liquid with a methacryloyl group was firstly hybridized with polyoxometalate anions of octamolybdate ([Mo₈O₂₆]^4-, Mo₈) and silicotungstate ([SiW₁₂O₄₀]^4-, SiW₁₂) to obtain inorganic-organic hybrid crystals.
