Quantum chemical calculations were performed to explore the structural and electronic properties of the two polyoxoaurates, [Au(III)4As(V)4O20](8-) (Au4As4) and [Au(III)4Se(IV)4O16](4-) (Au4Se4), known to date, and a number of hypothetical polyoxoaurate derivatives comprising heteroatoms different from arsenic and selenium (namely, Si, Ge and P). In addition, the interactions of [Au(III)4X4Om](n-) (X = As, Se) with alkali-metal cations (Li(+), Na(+), K(+) and Rb(+)) are also analysed. The studies suggest that the geometry structure, electronic properties and nucleophilicity of oxygen atoms of these polyoxoaurates are tuned by the size or electronegativity of the heteroatoms (Si, Ge, P, As and Se).

A total of 16 discrete polyoxopalladates(II) [MO(8)Pd(II)(12)L(8)](n-), with a metal ion M encapsulated in a cuboid-shaped {Pd(12)O(8)L(8)} cage, have been synthesized: the phenylarsonate-capped series (1) L = PhAsO(3)(2-), M = Sc(3+) (ScPhAs), Mn(2+) (MnPhAs), Fe(3+) (FePhAs), Co(2+) (CoPhAs), Ni(2+) (NiPhAs), Cu(2+) (CuPhAs), Zn(2+) (ZnPhAs); the phenylphosphonate-capped series: (2) L = PhPO(3)(2-), M = Cu(2+) (CuPhP), Zn(2+) (ZnPhP); and the selenite-capped series (3) L = SeO(3)(2-), M = Mn(2+) (MnSe), Fe(3+) (FeSe), Co(2+) (CoSe), Ni(2+) (NiSe), Cu(2+), (CuSe), Zn(2+) (ZnSe), Lu(3+) (LuSe)). The polyanions were prepared in one-pot reactions in aqueous solution of [Pd(3)(CH(3)COO)(6)] with an appropriate salt of the metal ion M, as well as PhAsO(3)H(2), PhPO(3)H(2), and SeO(2), respectively, and then isolated as hydrated sodium salts Na(n)[MO(8)Pd(II)(12)L(8)]·yH(2)O (y = 10-37). The compounds were characterized in the solid state by IR spectroscopy, single-crystal XRD, elemental and thermogravimetric analyses.
