摘要

Polyoxometalates (POMs),a class of discrete anionic metal oxides in groups Ⅴ and Ⅵ,are constructed via the condensation of metal oxide polyhedral (MOx,M=WⅥ,MoⅥ,VⅤ,Nb,Ta,etc.and x=4-7) with each other in a comer-,edge-,or rarely in a face-sharing manner [1-3].Up to now,the broadening family of POM derivatives ranges from small size clusters to nanoscale giant aggregates,which have shown impressive chemical and physical properties and great potential in fields of catalysis,magnetism,medicine,photochemistry,environment,energy and materials science [4,5].Latest progress on POMs chemistry is directed to the construction of high-nuclearity clusters and the exploration of functional applications in energy chemistry,catalysis,and self-assembly (Figure 1).
