Spontaneous resolution of 3D chiral hexadecavanadate-based frameworks incorporating achiral flexible and rigid ligands

Introducing of mixed flexible and rigid achiral ligands into the hexadecavanadate skeleton leads to the isolation of two enantiomerically 3D chiral hexadecavanadate derivatives, which represent the first example of chiral polyoxometalate-based framework functionalized with mixed flexible and rigid achiral ligands.
