Abstract

The first Fe-implanted polyoxotantalate (POTa), K₁₂Na₁₄H_7.4[Fe_10.7Ta_1.3O₈(OH)₈(H₂O)₂(Ta₆O₁₉)₆]·114.5H₂O (1), has been obtained by self-assembly in alkaline solution. The polyanion consists of six Lindqvist-type {Ta₆} units linked together by {Fe_10.7Ta_1.3}. The compound not only possesses the highest nuclearity transition metal-oxygen cluster, but also has the highest degree of polymerization in the POTa field to date. And 1 possesses remarkable proton conduction.
