Abstract

Getting together helps: The wheel-shaped {P8W48} polyoxotungstate (see picture) provides a reaction chamber for the directed assembly of two unprecedented mixed-valence vanadium oxide cavity-capping groups based on linked octahedra and tetrahedra with VIV and VV centers, respectively. The magnetic and electronic properties are controlled by the confined conditions.
