Heteropolymetalate

Heteropolymetalates:
K5[IMo6O24nH2O
Ag7[PV12O36nH2O
(NH4)4[NiMo6O24H6]·5H2O
K3[CrMo6O24H6nH2O
(NH4)8[CeMo12O42]·8H2O

In chemistry, the heteropolymetalates are a subset of the polyoxometalates, which consist of three or more transition metal oxyanions linked together by shared oxygen atoms to form a closed 3-dimensional molecular framework. In contrast to isopolymetalates, which contain only one kind of metal atom, the heteropolymetalates contain differing main group oxyanions. The metal atoms are usually group 6 (Mo, W) or less commonly group 5 (V, Nb, Ta) transition metals in their highest oxidation states. They are usually colorless to orange, diamagnetic anions. For most heteropolymetalates the W, Mo, or V, is complemented by main group oxyanions phosphate and silicate. Many exceptions to these general statements exist, and the class of compounds includes hundreds of examples. [1][2]
