Spontaneous resolution of polyoxometalate-based inorganic-organic hybrids driven by solvent and common ion

Dalton Trans. 2014 Dec 14;43(46):17296-302. doi: 10.1039/c4dt01954g.

Abstract

Three single-sided, triol-functionalized Anderson POM hybrids were successfully synthesized. With suitable solvents and the effect driven by common-ion synergy, enantiopure crystals were obtained when the spontaneous resolution of enantiomers occurred upon crystallization. The chirality of POM-organic hybrids was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and solid-state CD spectrum. A reversible, spontaneous resolution process for POM-based inorganic-organic hybrids was observed in this work.
