Sažetak
The authors' review compiles the literature in the field of polyoxomolybdates and polyoxomolybdovanadates over the past decade. The main achievements in the field of synthesis, crystal and molecular structure determinations and applications are presented. Some novel polyoxometalates synthesized in aqueous and nonaqueous solutions are described. The first section emphasis the hydrothermal/solvothermal synthesis as a flexible synthetic method with a possibility to control the resulting structure. The second section describes the structure of the complexes starting from the structures with a smaller number of building units to the formation of new structural types of polyoxometalate clusters of supramolecular arhitecture. The last section covers the application of the new compounds. Due to the functionalization of the complexes potential utility in biology and medicine, catalysis and material science is significantly increased. Finally, the importance of large polyoxometalate clusters as target nanosized molecular materials, which present a challenge for the future complex chemistry, is discussed.
