Abstract

Abstract : The syntheses of mono-, di-, tetra-, hexa-, and polynuclear Mg(ii )-phosphate monoesters are reported. Abstract : Herein, we report the synthesis and molecular structures of various magnesium(ii )-phosphate monoesters. By using a bulky aryl substituted phosphate monoester, ArOPO3 H2 (Ar = 2, 6-(CHPh2 )2 -4- t Bu-C6 H2 ), we have reproducibly assembled mono-, di-, tetra- (cage and ring), hexa-, and polynuclear magnesium(ii )-phosphate monoesters. Interestingly, the hexanuclear magnesium(ii )-phosphate monoester encapsulates an open-cage dodecanuclear water cluster.
