The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

A supramolecular approach to the crystallization of chalcogenido bridged cluster aqua ions: synthesis and structure of a cucurbituril adduct of the di-μ-disulfido Nb(IV)2 aqua ion [Nb2(μ-S2)2(H2O)8]4+

Abstract

A solution of cucurbituril in 2.5 M HCl reacts upon mixing with Cs5[Nb2S4Cl8]Cl to produce the yellow crystals of [Nb2S4(H2O)8](C36H36N24O12)Cl4·15H2O (1). The crystal structure of 1 reveals one-dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid material of alternating cucurbituril molecules and [Nb2(μ-S2)2(H2O)8]4+ cations assembled through strong hydrogen bonds between coordinated water molecules and portal oxygen atoms of cucurbituril.
