The reaction of [Bi 6 O 4 (OH) 4 ](NO 3 ) 6 · H 2 O with triflic acid gave colorless single crystals of [Bi 6 O 4 (OH) 4 (OTf) 6 (CH 3 CN) 6 ] · 2CH 3 CN ( 1 ) upon crystallization from acetonitrile/chloroform. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P 2 1 / n . The novel hexanuclear bismuth oxido cluster is highly soluble in water and polar organic solvents. A transparent and water‐soluble hybrid material was obtained by reaction of [Bi 6 O 4 (OH) 4 (OTf) 6 (CH 3 CN) 6 ] · 2CH 3 CN ( 1 ) with polyacrylate in aqueous solution. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to study the complexation behavior of the [Bi 6 O 4+ x (OH) 4– x ] (6– x )+ cation with polyacrylate in solution.
