RESUMO

One or two phenylacetylide (PA) ligand(s) were successfully removed from the IrAu12 superatomic core of [IrAu12(dppe)5(PA)2]+ (dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) by reaction with controlled amounts of tetrafluoroboric acid. Optical and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies and density functional theory calculations revealed the formation of open Au site(s) on the IrAu12 core of [IrAu12(dppe)5(PA)1]2+ and [IrAu12(dppe)5]3+ with the remaining structure intact. Isocyanide was efficiently trapped at the open electrophilic site on [IrAu12(dppe)5(PA)1]2+, whereas a dimer or trimer of the IrAu12 superatoms was formed using diisocyanide as a linker. These results open the door to designed assembly of chemically modified metal superatoms.

RESUMO

We report that surrounding coordination of neutral six-membered arene rings affords molecularly well-defined organotransition metal nanoclusters. With the use of [2.2]paracyclophane as the face-capping arene ligand, we have isolated two polyarene palladium nanoclusters, one consisting of a hexakis-arene ligand shell and a hexagonal close-packed Pd13 anticuboctahedron trichloride core, and the other consisting of an octakis-arene ligand shell and a non-close-packed Pd17 square gyrobicupola dichloride core, both with Pd-Pd direct bonding. The µ4-facial coordination mode of arene was discovered through the structural characterization of the Pd13 cluster. Their Pd13 and Pd17 cores, which are distinct from the previously identified face-centered-cubic Pd13 core surrounded by seven-membered cycloheptatrienyl, are explained by stereochemical and theoretical analyses.

RESUMO

Collision-induced dissociation (CID) patterns of the phosphine-protected Au-based clusters [PdAu8(PPh3)8]2+ (PdAu8) and [Au9(PPh3)8]3+ (Au9), featuring crown-shaped M@Au8 (M = Pd, Au) cores, were investigated. For PdAu8, ordinary sequential PPh3 losses (PdAu8 → [PdAu8(PPh3)m]2+ + (8 - m)PPh3 (m = 7, 6, 5)) were observed. In contrast, Au9 underwent cluster-core fission (Au9 → [Au6(PPh3)6]2+ (Au6) + [Au3(PPh3)2]+ (Au3)) upon sufficiently high energy collision, associated with splitting the number of valence electrons in the superatomic orbitals from 6e (Au9) into 4e (Au6) and 2e (Au3). Density functional theory calculations revealed oblate and prolate cores of Au9 and Au6 with semiclosed superatomic electron configurations of (1S)2(1Px)2(1Py)2 and (1S)2(1Pz)2, respectively. This result indicated a significant deformation of the cluster-core motif during the CID process. We attribute the clear difference between PdAu8 and Au9 to the softer Au-Au bond in Au9 and propose that the collision-induced structural deformation plays a critical role in the fission.

RESUMO

We demonstrated, for the first time, atomically precise synthesis of gold cluster cations by magnetron sputtering of a gold target onto a polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution of 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (Ph2PCH2CH2CH2PPh2, dppp). UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry revealed the formation of cationic species, such as [Au(dppp)n]+ (n = 1, 2), [Au2(dppp)n]2+ (n = 3, 4), [Au6(dppp)n]2+ (n = 3, 4), and [Au11(dppp)5]3+. The formation of [Au(dppp)2]+ was ascribed to ionization of Au(dppp)2 by the reaction with PEG, based on its low ionization energy, theoretically predicted, mass spectrometric detection of deprotonated anions of PEG. We proposed that [Au(dppp)2]+ cations thus formed are involved as key components in the formation of the cluster cations.

RESUMO

We successfully introduced up to 12 poly(benzyl ether)dendron-thiols of the second generation (D2SH) into the Au13 core of [Au23(ScC6H11)16]- while retaining the geometric structure. The decoration with D2SH enhanced the optical absorbance in the >2.5 eV region and the quantum yield of photoluminescence at ∼1.6 eV by ∼15 times.

RESUMO

Atomically precise gold/silver clusters protected by organic ligands L, [(Au/Ag)x Ly ]z , have gained increasing interest as building units of functional materials because of their novel photophysical and physicochemical properties. The properties of [(Au/Ag)x Ly ]z are intimately associated with the quantized electronic structures of the metallic cores, which can be viewed as superatoms from the analogy of naked Au/Ag clusters. Thus, establishment of the correlation between the geometric and electronic structures of the superatomic cores is crucial for rational design and improvement of the properties of [(Au/Ag)x Ly ]z . This review article aims to provide a qualitative understanding on how the electronic structures of [(Au/Ag)x Ly ]z are affected by geometric structures of the superatomic cores with a focus on three factors: size, shape, and composition, on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The knowledge accumulated here will constitute a basis for the development of ligand-protected Au/Ag clusters as new artificial elements on a nanometer scale.
