摘要
Despite significant advances in atomically precise Au clusters with chirality, Ag clusters with the relevant features are still less explored. In this study, we report successful synthesis of chiral Ag-29 clusters protected by water-soluble monothiol in one pot, which is carried out by reducing Ag ions in the presence of N-acetyl-(S)-penicillamine (S-NAP) and triphenylphosphine (TPP) at 10 degrees C, yielding the Ag-29(S-NAP)(24) cluster. The obtained cluster is isolable as a solid-state powder. Optical absorption of Ag-29(S-NAP)(24) is almost identical with that of Ag-29(R-DHLA)(12), where DHLA denotes alpha-dihydrolipoic acid, and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) results support the similarity of their electronic structures. The anisotropy factor of Ag-29(S-NAP)(24) is comparable to or larger than that of Ag-29(R-DHLA)(12), suggesting that the surface shell structure of Ag-29(S-NAP)(24) is inherently chiral, as has been observed for Ag-29(R-DHLA)(12). Then the use of enantiopure NAP would preferentially lead to a one-handed atomic arrangement in the clusters.
