A new heterometallic 3d–4f tungstoantimonite, KNa5{K2Dy2Cu2(H2O)8(SbW9O33)2}·17H2O (1) was designed and synthesized by decomposition of preformed large cluster, resulting in a ring-like 3d–4f–4p cluster {K2Dy2Cu2(H2O)8}-containing polyoxotungstate.
Reactions of lacunary polyoxometalate (POM), transitionmetal (TM), and lanthanide-metal (Ln) cations with the assistance of additional small organic molecules under hydrothermal conditions led to the formation of a group of metal-POM frameworks (MPFs) with nanospaces: [Cu(enMe) 2 ] 13 -{Ln(SiW 11 O 39 ) 2 } 2 ·xH 2 O [Ln = Ho 3+ (compound 1), Dy 3+ (compound 2), Eu 3+ (compound 3), Er 3+ (compound 4), Sm 3+ (compound 5), Pr 3+ (compound 6); x = 18 for 1, 5, 6; x = 20 for 2, 3, 4; enMe = 1,2-diaminopropane).

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
