Abstract

A novel U(VI)-substituted tellurotungstate, Na<sub>13</sub>H<sub>6</sub>[{NaWU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>10</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>3</sub>}(<i>B</i>-α-TeW<sub>9</sub>O<sub>33</sub>)<sub>3</sub>]·55H<sub>2</sub>O (<b>U</b><sub><b>3</b></sub><b>TeW</b>), was successfully synthesized through the reaction of trivacant Keggin precursors with 5f U(VI) ions. The compound was systematically characterized using various techniques. Structural analysis reveals that <b>U</b><sub><b>3</b></sub><b>TeW</b> consists of three [<i>B</i>-α-TeW<sub>9</sub>O<sub>33</sub>]<sup>8-</sup> fragments encapsulating a central heterometallic NaWU<sub>3</sub>O<sub>10</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>3</sub> cluster with a trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Furthermore, <b>U</b><sub><b>3</b></sub><b>TeW</b> exhibits remarkable photocatalytic activity in the visible-light-driven hydroacylation of dialkyl azodicarboxylates, enabling efficient C-N bond formation with excellent yields and broad substrate scope. This study provides a rare example of U(VI)-incorporated polyoxometalate-based photocatalysts applied in the field of C-H functionalization.
