Ionothermal synthesis of polyoxometalates

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2012 Jan 9;51(2):308-9. doi: 10.1002/anie.201107014. Epub 2011 Nov 25.

Abstract

An emerging approach: In the ionothermal synthesis of transition-metal-oxide clusters an ionic liquid acts as a solvent, structure-directing agent, and charge-compensating species. The method may open new convenient routes for the synthesis of polyoxometalate-based materials.
