A novel organic-inorganic hybrid based on tungstoantimonate: Synthesis, crystal structure, and properties of Na[{Cu(2,2'-bpy)(H2O)}(2){Cu(2,2'-bpy)}(2)(B-alpha-SbW9O33)]center dot 2H(2)O
A novel organic-inorganic hybrid tungstoantimonate Na-[(Cu(2,2'-bpy)(H2O)}(2){Cu(2,2'-bpy)}(2)(B-alpha-SbW9O33)](.)2H(2)O (2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) was synthesized hydrothermally and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, EPR, TG, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction, whose polyoxoanion consists of two [Cu(2,2'-bpy)](2+) and two [Cu(2,2'-bpy)(H2O)](2+) complex groups grafted on a trivacant polyoxoanion B-alpha-[SbW9O33](9-) skeleton.
