Construction of 3D metal–organic frameworks bearing heteropolyoxometalate units and multi-azole molecules and exploration of their photocatalytic activities
Taking advantage of multi-azole molecules as organic linkers, two novel 3D metal–organic frameworks consisting of heteropolyoxometalate building blocks, i.e. , [Cu 5 (1,4-ttb) 4 (CrMo 6 (OH) 6 O 18 )(H 2 O) 8 ]·10H 2 O ( 1 ) and [Cu 4 (1,4-ttb) 4 (SiW 12 O 40 )(H 2 O) 8 ]·4H 2 O ( 2 ) (1,4-ttb = 1-(...

via
X-ray single-crystal diffraction, FT-IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and TG analyses. Compounds

both possess pillared-layer 3D frameworks which were based on POM units and different Cu–tetrazolate motifs. Compound

were studied. Intriguingly, compounds

and
2
display considerable photocatalytic activities for the degradation of several organic dyes. |
