Abstract

A novel mixed-valent AgI/Ag⁰T_h-Ag₃₄ cage was obtained by a one-pot ultrasonic reaction. In the shell of the cage, CO₃²⁻ anion is derived from atmospheric CO₂ and adopts a rare μ₆ bridging mode to link the AgI ions. In the core of the cage, an unprecedented neutral metal cluster with six zero-valent silver atoms is encapsulated.
