A metal exchange method based upon atomically precise gold nanoclusters (NCs) as templates is devised to obtain alloy NCs including CuxAu25-x(SR)18, AgxAu25-x(SR)18, Cd1Au24(SR)18, and Hg1Au24(SR)18 via reaction of the template with thiolate complexes Cu(II), Ag(I), Cd(II), Hg(II) (as opposed common salt precursors such CuCl2, AgNO3, etc.). Experimental results imply that between atoms in those second thiolated complex does not necessarily follow order activity (i.e., galvanic sequence). In...
Abstract Decreasing the core size is one of best ways to study evolution from Au I complexes into nanoclusters. Toward this goal, we successfully synthesized [Au 18 (SC 6 H 11 ) 14 ] nanocluster using (SG) (SG= L ‐glutathione) as starting material react with cyclohexylthiol, and determined X‐ray structure cyclohexylthiol‐protected (C S) nanocluster. The (SR) cluster has a 9 bi‐octahedral kernel (or inner core). This built by two octahedral cores sharing triangular face. One transitional gold...
Rational exploration of cost‐effective, durable, and high‐performance electrode materials is imperative for advancing the progress capacitive deionization (CDI). The integration multicomponent layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with conjugated conductive metal‐organic frameworks (c‐MOFs) to fabricate bifunctional heterostructure considered a promising strategy. Herein, fabrication hierarchical MOF/LDH/CF nanoarchitectures (M‐CAT/LDH/CF) as CDI anodes via controllable grafted‐growth strategy...
The crystal structure of the [Ag62S12(SBut)32]2+ nanocluster (denoted as NC-I) has been successfully determined, and it shows a complete face-centered-cubic (FCC) Ag14 core with Ag48(SBut)32 shell configuration interconnected by 12 sulfide ions, which is similar to [Ag62S13(SBut)32]4+ NC-II for short) reported Wang. Interestingly, NC-I exhibits prominent differences in optical properties comparison case nanocluster. We employed femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy further identify...
We report the X-ray structure of a selenolate-capped Au24(SeR)20 nanocluster (R = C6H5). It exhibits prolate Au8 kernel, which can be viewed as two tetrahedral Au4 units cross-joined together without sharing any Au atoms. The kernel is protected by trimeric Au3(SeR)4 staple-like motifs well pentameric Au5(SeR)6 staple motifs. Compared to reported gold-thiolate structures, features and motif are unprecedented provide structural basis for understanding gold-selenolate nanoclusters.
The structure effect is widely present in the catalysis of alloy systems. However, surface this system still ambiguous because limitations current characterization tools.

This consists an achiral bimetallic Ag2@Au18@Ag20 core protected by chiral Ag24Au6(SR)32 shell. experiments further revealed that affects selectivity products significantly. case to find...

This new comprised a 32-metal-atom dodecahedral kernel two symmetrical Ag9(SR)15P6 ring motifs. The 20 valence electrons correspond to shell closure in Jellium model. Moreover, this could be alloyed templated/galvanic metal exchange...

Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) nanoparticles have been widely applied in photodynamic therapy (PDT) over the past few years. However, amorphous nanoaggregates usually occur their preparation, resulting loose packing with disordered molecular structures. This still allows free intramolecular motions, thus leading to limited brightness and PDT efficiency. Herein, we report deep-red AIE nanocrystals (NCs) of DTPA-BS-F by following facile method nanoprecipitation. It is observed that NCs...
