The 48-FeIII -containing 96-tungsto-16-phosphate, [FeIII 48 (OH)76 (H2 O)16 (HP2 W12 O48 )8 ]36- (Fe48 ), has been synthesized and structurally characterized. This polyanion comprises eight equivalent {FeIII 6 P2 W12 } units that are linked in an end-on fashion forming a macrocyclic assembly that contains more iron centers than any other polyoxometalate (POM) known to date. The novel Fe48 was synthesized by a simple one-pot reaction of an {Fe22 } coordination complex with the hexalacunary {P2 W12 } POM precursor in water. The title polyanion was characterized by single-crystal XRD, FTIR, TGA, magnetic and electrochemical studies.
