摘要

A novel compound, [Co-2(bimb)(2)VW12O40] [bimb]center dot 6H(2)O (1) (bimb = 1.4-bis(1-imidazolyl)benzene), with polyoxometalate-based metal-organic framework (POMOF), has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, infrared spectrum, X-ray photoemission spectra, elemental analyses, and powder X-ray diffraction pattern. In the compound, there are metal-organic nanotubes formed by [Co-2(bimb)](4+) zig-zag chains and six-connected VW12 guest clusters. Further, the neighboring metal organic nanotubes are connected together via sharing the [Co(2()bimb)](4+) zig-zag chains to achieve a highly opened POMOF with hexagonal apertures, representing the first POMOF constructed by V-centered tungstovanadate. Electrochemical and luminescent properties of the compound were also investigated.
