{W48} Ring Opening: Fe16‐Containing, Ln4‐Stabilized 49‐Tungsto‐8‐Phosphate Open Wheel [Fe16O2(OH)23(H2O)9(P8W49O189)Ln4(H2O)20]11−

Wheely: For the first time and very unexpectedly, a rupture of the very stable {P(8)W(48)} wheel was observed in aqueous solution at pH 4 and 80 °C in the presence of Fe(III), Eu(III)/Gd(III), and H(2)O(2). This inorganic ring opening is unprecedented in polyoxometalate chemistry.
