Closing Uranyl Polyoxometalate Capsules with Bismuth and Lead Polyoxocations.
Angewandte Chemie 2016 October 18
Uranyl polyoxometalate clusters are both fundamentally fascinating and potentially relevant to nuclear energy applications. With only ten years of development, there is still much to be discovered about heterometal derivatives and aqueous speciation and behavior. Herein, we show that it is possible to encapsulate the polyoxocations [Bi6 O8 ]2+ and [Pb8 O6 ]4+ in [(UO2 )(O2 )(OH)]24 24- (denoted Bi@U24 and Pb@U24 ) in pure form and high yields despite the fact that under aqueous conditions, these compounds are stable on opposite ends of the pH scale. Moreover, [Pb8 O6 ]4+ is a formerly unknown PbII polynuclear species, both in solution and in the solid state. Raman spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analysis of the reaction solutions revealed the very rapid assembly of the nested clusters, driven by bismuth- or lead-promoted decomposition of excess peroxide, which inhibits U24 formation. Experimental and simulated small-angle X-ray scattering data of Bi@U24 and Pb@U24 solutions revealed that this technique is very sensitive not only to the size and shape of the clusters, but also to the encapsulated species.
