Abstract

Herein we present the first example of a glycol-coordinated ε- Keggin Al13 chloride (gl-ε-Al13), which is the first chelated version since discovery of Al13 in 1960. The molecular structure consists of [AlO4Al12(OH)12(OC2H4OH)12]Cl7·H2O units with chelating mono- anionic ethylene glycol units replacing one bridging and one terminal oxygen site.
