Abstract
Complexes made by hosts that completely surround their guests provide a mean to stabilize reactive chemical intermediates, transfer biologically active cargo to a diseased cell, and construct molecular scale devices. By the virtue of inorganic host-guest self-assembly, nucleation processes in the cavity of a {P8W48}-archetype phosphotungstate has afforded a nanoscale 16-AlIII-32-oxo cluster and its GaIII analogue that contain the largest number of AlIII/GaIII ions yet found in POM chemistry. Interestingly, the rich Lewis acid AlIII centers within the Lewis base POM support shows an exceptional proton conductivity of 4.5 × 10-2 S cm-1 (85 °C, 70% RH; RH: relative humidity), which is by far the highest conductivity reported among POM-based crystalline proton conductors.
