The synthesis and structure of a giant 102-silver-atom nanocluster (NC) 1 is presented. X-ray structural analysis reveals that 1 features a multi-shelled metallic core of Ag @Ag @Ag @Ag . An octahedral Ag core is encaged by a truncated octahedral Ag shell. The Ag shell is composed of a hitherto unknown sodalite-type silver orthophosphate cluster (SOC) {(Ag PO ) }, reminiscent of the Ag PO photocatalyst. The SOC is capped by six interstitial sulfur atoms, giving a unique anionic cluster [Ag @{(Ag PO ) }S ] , which functions as an intricate polyhedral template with abundant surface O and S atoms guiding the formation of a rare rhombicosidodecahedral Ag shell. An array of 6 linear Ag staples further surround this Ag shell. [Ag @{(Ag PO ) }S ] is an unusual Ag-based templating anion to induce the assembly of a SOC within silver NC. This finding provides molecular models for bulk Ag PO , and offers a fresh template strategy for the synthesis of silver NCs with high symmetry.
本文介绍了一种由102个银原子构成的巨型纳米团簇(NC)1的合成与结构。X射线结构分析表明,1具有Ag@Ag@Ag@Ag的多壳层金属核。一个八面体Ag核被一个截顶八面体Ag壳所包围。Ag壳由一种迄今未知的方钠石型磷酸银簇(SOC){(AgPO)}组成,让人联想到AgPO光催化剂。SOC由六个间隙硫原子封端,形成独特的阴离子簇[Ag@{(AgPO)}S],它作为一个复杂的多面体模板,具有丰富的表面O和S原子,引导形成罕见的菱形十二面体Ag壳。一系列6个线性Ag钉进一步围绕这个Ag壳。[Ag@{(AgPO)}S]是一种不寻常的基于Ag的模板阴离子,可诱导SOC在银纳米团簇内组装。这一发现为块状AgPO提供了分子模型,并为合成具有高对称性的银纳米团簇提供了一种新的模板策略。
