Abstract

A unique heteropolyoxotantalate (hetero-POTa) cluster [P₂O₇Ta₅O₁₄]^7- (P₂Ta₅) was first developed using pyrophosphate as a key to open the ultrastable skeleton of the classical Lindqvist-type [Ta₆O₁₉]^8- precursor. The P₂Ta₅ cluster can serve as a general and flexible secondary building unit to create a family of brand-new multidimensional POTa architectures. This work not only promotes the limited structural diversity of hetero-POTa but also provides a practical strategy for new extended POTa architectures.
