Synergetic activation of "silent receptor" sites leading to a new type of inclusion complex: integration of a 64-membered ring comprising K+ and SO4(2-) ions into a molybdenum oxide-based nanoobject.

The new type of inclusion species [Mo(VI)114Mo(V)32O429(H2O)50(KSO4)16]30- comprising 16 encapsulated K+ and SO4(2-) ions shows an unusual 64-membered [K(SO4)]16 ring integrated into a wheel-shaped type nanocluster host; it is formed by a synergetically induced functional complementarity and represents a text-book example of a very complex non-biological material.

Heterobinuclear complexes as building blocks in designing extended structures.

The heterobinuclear complex [CuPrL(NO(3))(3)] has been used as a building block for the construction of a two-dimensional coordination polymer with the formula [CuPrL(NO(3)(2)(IN)], 1 (L(2-) = the dianion of the compartmental Schiff-base ligand obtained from the 2:1 condensation of 3-methoxysalicylaldehyde with 1,3-propanediamine; IN(-) = the isonicotinate ion). The heterobinuclear units, [CuPrL(NO(3))(2)](+), are connected through the unsymmetrical exo-bidentate ligands, IN(-), leading to a unique extended structure.

Urea as 'deus ex machina' in giant molybdenum blue type cluster synthesis: an unusual hybrid compound with perspectives for related nano, supramolecular and extended structures.

The reaction of an aqueous solution of ammonium heptamolybdate with sodium dithionite and urea--a glue and cluster hydration shell destructing agent corresponding to its role in inclusion compound chemistry--at low pH value results in the formation of nanosized ring shaped molybdenum-oxide based clusters which in a short time get linked to chains.
