Research progress in synthesis and catalysis of polyoxometalates

摘要

Recent progress in the synthetic chemistry and catalysis of polyoxometalates (POMs) is reviewed. The novel POMs and their derivatives emerging in nearly three years (2002—2004) are introduced, including POMs with novel structure, POMs-organic hybridcompounds and host-guest complexes. Our review is focused on the elaboration of POMs' supramolecular chemistry.
