Synthesis of New Hybrid Materials by Intercalation of a Bifunctional Aminophosphane and Its Tungsten Pentacarbonyl Complex in α-Zirconium Phosphate†
We thank EPSRC (UK) for a studentship (to J. J. P.) and access to MAS NMR facilities at the National Solid State NMR Service at Durham. Aspects of this work were funded by the European Commission under Brite-Euram II (Contract Number BRE2-CT93-0450). We thank Dr. K. E. Young for helpful discussions.
Graphical Abstract
Functionalization of a phosphane ligand facilitates intercalation of the free ligand and its tungsten pentacarbonyl complex (example shown bottom right) in α-zirconium phosphate (section of structure shown bottom left). Syntheses of intercalated products with the stoichiometry [Zr(HPO4)2(Q)x·yH2O] (Q = Ph2PCH2CH2NMe2, x = 0.46, y = 1.1; Q = (OC)5W(Ph2PCH2CH2NMe2), x = 0.51, y = 1.5) are reported.
