In the presence of large excesses of borohydride salts, gold monolayer protected-clusters can be grown to larger sizes simply by controlling the amount of reducing agent added to smaller clusters. In addition, gold monolayer clusters can be used as catalysts for reduction reactions by sodium borohydride; results suggest such catalysts have sterically constrained active sites.
在大量过量的硼氢化物盐存在下，通过控制添加到较小簇的还原剂的量，可以将金单层保护簇生长到更大的尺寸。此外，金单层簇可用作硼氢化钠还原反应的催化剂；结果表明，此类催化剂具有受空间限制的活性位。
