Abstract

The nanoscale one-dimensional polymeric polyniobate K12[Ti2O2][SiNb12O40]·22H2O (KSiNb) rapidly hydrolyzes the gaseous organophosphorus nerve agent simulant dimethyl chlorophosphate (DMCP). A multimodal approach combining X-ray, IR and Raman spectroscopies and computation reveals that this reaction, involving the initial nucleophilic attack of polyoxometalate (POM) oxygen at phosphorus, is greatly modulated by the polyniobate counterions: the most negative and nucleophilic oxygen atoms in KSiNb, the Ti–O–Ti and Ti–O–Nb oxygen atoms, preferentially bind the potassium counterions, compelling the less negative oxygen atoms to become the nucleophiles. This heretofore unnoted paradigm of the POM counterion location and function could well impact a myriad of POM reaction studies.
