Abstract
W-WS). Importantly, this study demonstrates that coordinatively saturated metal ions in this central position, which at first glance appear insignificant, do not solely have a structural role but also impart a distinctive structural influence on the reactivity of the polyoxometalate. These results provide unique insights into the structure-reactivity relationships of polyoxometalates with improved catalytic performance characteristics.
