Trapped in a noble cube: A novel family of noble metalates has been discovered in which a 3d metal ion M (M = Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II)) is encapsulated by a 12 palladium-oxo cage {Pd(12)O(32)}, which is capped by eight phosphate groups. Such discrete nanocubes were further investigated by EPR spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and in homogeneous hydrogenation catalysis.
