| Summary: | Heterometallic polyoxotungstates (HMPOTs) are still a challenging and attractive materials in polyoxometalate chemistry despite having generated remarkable interest in recent years not only on account of a variety of new structures and topologies but also because of their multiple potential applications in catalysis, magnetism, nanoscience, electrochemistry and photochemistry. This brief highlight article is principally focused on an overview of four types of HMPOTs: polyoxotungstate-based main-group (MG) and transition-metal (TM) heterometallic derivatives (PMGTMHDs), polyoxotungstate-based TM and TM heterometallic derivatives (PTMTMHDs), polyoxotungstate-based rare-earth (RE) and TM heterometallic derivatives (PRETMHDs) and polyoxotungstate-based RE and RE heterometallic derivatives (PREREHDs), and gives a summary of some representative examples involving their syntheses, structures and related properties. In addition, an outlook on these materials is also provided.
In this article, the main progress on heterometallic polyoxotungstates in the past decade involving syntheses, structures and related properties is highlighted and discussed. |

| Bibliography: | Qing Han was born in Henan Province, China. Currently, he is pursuing his MS degree at Henan University in Henan Key Laboratory of Polyoxometalate Chemistry under the supervision of Professor Junwei Zhao. His current research interest is focused on the designed synthesis and properties of polyoxometalates including transition metal and lanthanide clusters. Jiancai Liu was born in Henan Province, China and is studying for her MS degree in chemistry at Henan University in the group of Professor Junwei Zhao in Henan Key Laboratory of Polyoxometalate Chemistry. Her current research interest is concentrated on the preparation of novel organic-inorganic hybrid rare-earth-substituted polyoxometalate materials and their optical and electronic properties. Junwei Zhao obtained the BS degree in chemistry in 2002 and gained his MS degree under the supervision of Professor Jingyang Niu in 2005 from Henan University. In 2008, he received his PhD under the supervision of Professor Guo-Yu Yang at Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter, Chinese Academy of Sciences. After then, he became a faculty member of Henan University, was promoted to a full professor in chemistry in 2014 and was ranked as an academic leader of Department of Education of Henan Province and as a science & technology innovation talent in universities of Henan Province in 2015. He is mainly engaged in the synthesis and preparative chemistry of polyoxometalate-based functional materials and the relevant optical, electrical, magnetic and medical properties. Lijuan Chen was born in Henan, China. She gained her BS and MS degrees in chemistry from Henan University (2005) and obtained her PhD under the supervision of Professor Jianmin Chen at Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (2009). In 2009, she joined Henan University and was appointed as a lecturer. In 2013, she was promoted as an associate professor. Since April 2014, she has been working with Professor Jingyang Niu as a postdoctoral fellow in Henan University. Her research interest is focused on coordination chemistry and photophysical properties of polyoxometalate-based materials.
