The photoactive compounds (TBA)₂[W₆I₈(C₇H₇SO₃)₆] and (TBA)₂[W₆I₈(COOCF₃)₆] have been incorporated into a permeable silicone matrix and were measured for their application in the decomposition of multi-resistant bioactive species (hospital germs) such as <i>S. aureus</i> and <i>P. aeruginosa</i> as well as fungi. In addition, we present a new high volume synthesis route for these types of cluster compounds departing from the soluble compound W₆I₂₂.RSC advancesPhotodynamic properties of tungsten iodide clusters incorporated into silicone: A₂[M₆I₈L₆]@silicone.PMC9054561ME914-31-119-53-12019Alekseev AYEnseling DHummel TDutczak DShestopalov MAMironov YVJustel TMeyer HJAdamenko LSfalsePhotodynamic properties of tungsten iodide clusters incorporated into silicone: A₂[M₆I₈L₆]@silicone.The light-induced antibacterial and antifungal properties of A₂[M₆I₈L₆] with M = Mo and W, A = organic cation, L = ligand have been studied.
