RESUMO
Herein we report two pentanuclear MnII-substituted sandwich-type polyoxotungstate complexes, [{Mn(bpy)}2Na(H2O)2(MnCl)2{Mn(H2O)}(AsW9O33)2]9- and [{Mn(bpy)}2Na(H2O)2(MnCl){Mn(H2O)}2(SbW9O33)2]8- (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), whose structures have been obtained by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), complemented by results obtained from elemental analysis, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. They consist of two [B-α-XW9O33]9- subunits sandwiching a cyclic assembly of the hexagonal [{Mn(bpy)}2Na(H2O)2(MnCl)2{Mn(H2O)}]9+ and [{Mn(bpy)}2Na(H2O)2(MnCl){Mn(H2O)}2]10+ moieties, respectively, and represent the first pentanuclear MnII-substituted sandwich-type polyoxometalates (POMs). Both compounds have been synthesized by reacting MnCl2·4H2O with trilacunary Na9[XW9O33]·27H2O (X = AsIII and SbIII) POM precursors in the presence of bpy in a 1 M aqueous sodium chloride solution under mild reaction conditions. SCXRD showed that the alternate arrangement of three five-coordinated MnII ions and two six-coordinated MnII ions with an internal Na cation formed a coplanar six-membered ring that was sandwiched between two [B-α-XW9O33]9- (X = AsIII and SbIII) subunits. The results of temperature-dependent direct-current (dc) magnetic susceptibility data indicated ferromagnetic interactions between Mn ions in the cluster. Moreover, alternating-current magnetic susceptibility measurements with a dc-biased magnetic field showed the existence of a ferromagnetic order for both samples. Electrochemistry studies revealed the presence of redox processes assigned to the Mn centers. They are associated with the deposition of material on the working electrode surface, possibly MnxOy, as demonstrated by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance experiments.
RESUMO
The dichromium(III)-containing heteropoly-16-tungstates [CrIII2(B-ß-SiIVW8O31)2]14- (1) and [CrIII2(B-ß-GeIVW8O31)2]14- (2) were prepared via a one-pot reaction of the composing elements in aqueous, basic medium. Polyanions 1 and 2 represent the first examples of CrIII-containing heteropolytungstates comprising the octatungstate unit {XW8O31} (X = Si, Ge). Magnetic studies demonstrated that, in the solid state, the two polyanions exhibit a weak antiferromagnetic interaction between the two CrIII centers with J = -3.5 ± 0.5 cm-1, with no long-range ordering down to 1.8 K. The ground-state spin of polyanions 1 and 2 was thus deduced to be 0, but the detection of a complex set of EPR signals implies that there are thermally accessible excited states containing unpaired spins resulting from the two S = 3/2 CrIII ions. A comprehensive electrochemistry study on 1 and 2 in solution was performed, and biological tests showed that both polyanions display significant antidiabetic and anticancer activities.

The hepta-Ni(2+)-containing 30-tungsto-4-phosphate(v) [Ni7(OH)6(H2O)6(P2W15O56)2](16-) (1) has been synthesized in aqueous, slightly basic medium under conventional reaction conditions, and charactarized via different physical methods. Single-crystal XRD showed that 1 consists of a corner-fused double-cubane {Ni7(OH)6(H2O)6}(8+) fragment sandwiched by two trilacunary [P2W15O56](12-) units. Polyanion 1 is solution-stable as shown by (31)P NMR. Ferromagnetic coupling interaction between the 7 paramagnetic centers of the double-cubane core in 1 with a S = 7 ground state was demonstrated. Electrochemical studies were also performed on 1.
