Control of the Linkage of Inorganic Fragments of VO Compounds: From Cluster Shells as Carcerands via Cluster Aggregates to Solid‐State Structures

Anionic templates such as NO and SCN− as well as H2O can direct the linking of VO polyhedra (octahedra, tetrahedra, square pyramids). What forms are "container compounds" with the template either in the central cavity, as seen in 1, or on the outside wall.
