Abstract

High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Surface chemical reactions on atomically precise metal clusters have considerable attention for opening a new platform for cluster functionalization. In this study, basic Au 25 (4-PyET) 18 (4-PyET = −SCH 2 CH 2 Py; Py = pyridyl) clusters were successfully transformed into cationized Au 25 (4-PyET-CH 3 + ) x (4-PyET) 18- x clusters, without altering their Au 25 cores, through the Menshutkin S N 2 reaction of their surface Py moieties. This study offers not only a simple cationization method but also a protocol for modifying the surface functionalities of molecular metal clusters via a synthetic reaction.
