Abstract
Tungsten(VI) oxo-salicylate complexes were prepared in moderate yield (47 to 63%) by the reactions of WOCl4 and two equivalents of either 3-methylsalicylic acid (MesaliH2) or 3,5-di-isopropylsalicylic acid (di-i-PrsaliH2). Performing the reaction in refluxing toluene afforded the two analogous ditungsten complexes 1, [{WO(Mesali)(MesaliH)}2(mu-O)], and 2, [{WO(di-i-Prsali)(di-i-PrsaliH)}2(mu-O)], however in refluxing hexane the mononuclear tungsten complex , [WO(di-i-Prsali)(di-i-PrsaliH)Cl], was isolated. The single crystal X-ray study of revealed a pseudo-octahedral geometry around the tungsten centres. Aerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition of or afforded brown tungsten trioxide thin films. These films were converted to yellow fully oxidised WO3 on annealing in air at 550 degrees C for 30 minutes. The yellow WO3 films demonstrate preferred orientation on the substrate and show interesting functional properties-photo induced hydrophilicity and photocatalytic activity.
