Abstract

Polydentate bridging ligands can be used to link small polyoxo-alkoxo-metalate units to form supramolecular clusters. In the title compound, twelve μ₄ -bridging squarato groups connect eight trinuclear methoxo-oxo-vanadate units to form a tetradodecanuclear cubic framework, in whose cavity six n-butyl groups of the tetra-n-butylammonium cations are anchored.

Keywords: cage compounds; polyoxometalates; solvothermal synthesis; squarates; structure elucidation; vanadium.
