By the routine aqueous solution method, a series of transitionmetal−lanthanide heterometallic tungstoantimonates [Ln(H 2 O) 8 ] 2 -[Fe 4 (H 2 O) 8 (thr) 2 ][B-β-SbW 9 O 33 ] 2 ·22H 2 O [Ln = Pr III (1), Nd III (2), Sm III (3), Eu III (4), Gd III (5), Dy III (6), Lu III (7), thr = threonine] were prepared and structurally characterized by multiple testing techniques. The common structural characteristic of 1−7 is that they are isomorphous and all consist of a [Fe 4 (H 2 O) 8 (thr) 2 (B-β-SbW 9 O 33 ) 2 ] 6− subunit with two supporting [Ln(H 2 O) 8 ] 3+ cations on both sides. It should be pointed out that two thr ligands in the [Fe 4 (H 2 O) 8 (thr) 2 (B-β-SbW 9 O 33 ) 2 ] 6− subunit substitute for two water ligands in the classical [Fe 4 (H 2 O) 10 (B-β-SbW 9 O 33 ) 2 ] 6− polyoxoanion. As far as we know, 1−7 represents the first organic−inorganic tungstoantimonate hybrids consisting of transition metal and lanthanide cations and amino acid components. The fluorescence behavior of 4 has been measured and manifests the remarkable fluorescence feature resulting from the emission signature of Eu III cations. Furthermore, the solid-state electrochemistry and electrocatalytic performances of 1 have been measured in 0.5 mol L −1 Na 2 SO 4 +H 2 SO 4 aqueous solution, and the results show that 1 illustrates comparatively apparent catalytic activities toward the BrO 3 − and H 2 O 2 reduction. The magnetic properties of 3 and 6 have been studied. ■ INTRODUCTION Polyoxometalates (POMs) represent an special family of intriguing metal−oxygen cluster compounds formed by high oxidation state early transition metals (preferably Mo, W, V, and Nb) bearing tremendous diverse structures, seductive properties, and latent applications in catalysis, magnetism, electronics, photoluminescence, pharmaceutical, and materials science. 1−9 Highly negative charge, O-enriched lacunary POMs, can act as one kind of outstanding multidentate nucleophilic candidates to coordinate to transition-metal (TM) or lanthanoid (Ln) ions to construct neoteric TM or Ln encapsulated POM aggregates with varying metal centers, alluring topological architectures and novel properties, which can also make more magnetic or catalytic components implant to the POM cluster skeletons. Therefore, the exploration and discovery of TM-or Ln-functionalized POMs have attracted considerable interest over the past few decades. Hitherto, a vast amount of TM-or Ln-substituted POMs have been sequentially discovered. 10−19 In contrast, explorations on POM-based TM−Ln heterometallic derivatives (PTLHDs) still remain less developed, although their unmatched diversities and physicochemical properties entail them to become candidates for magnetic materials or optical sensing materials. 20−22 Less work dedicated to PTLHDs mainly lies in an inescapable competing reaction between electrophilic Ln and TM cations with nucleophilic POM precursors within a system. 23 Therefore, the search and preparation of POMbased TM−Ln heterometallic materials will remain a longstanding and persisting chall...
