Rare example of a polynuclear heterometallic yttrium(III)–copper(I) iodide cluster with a [Y6(μ6-O)(μ3-OH)8]8+ core structure showing single crystal-to-single crystal transformation†‡
Abstract
A colorless polynuclear heterometallic yttrium(III)–copper(I) iodide cluster [Y6(μ6-O)(μ3-OH)8(DMSO)16(H2O)2]8+ [Cu2I4]2−6[I]− (1), isolated in a moderate yield from the hydrolytic reaction of [Y(DMSO)6(DMF)2][CuI3][I] in
