Abstract
A new photosensitive polyoxometalate (POM) organic-inorganic hybrid compound has been prepared by covalently tethering coumarin moieties onto a Mn-Anderson cluster. This compound has been fully characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR, and UV/Vis spectroscopy, and ESI-MS. This organic-inorganic hybrid compound can undergo reversible light-driven polymerization and this process has been characterized in detail. Polymerizing POMs: A new photosensitive polyoxometalate (POM) organic-inorganic hybrid compound has been prepared by covalently tethering coumarin moieties onto a Mn-Anderson cluster. This compound has been fully characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR, and UV/Vis spectroscopy, and ESI-MS. This compound can undergo reversible light-driven polymerization (see scheme) and this process has been characterized in detail.
