Nucleation products of ligated nanoclusters unaffected by temperature and reducing agent

Abstract

Atomically uniform nucleation products of ligated metal nanoclusters are observed irrespective of reduction conditions for metal–bidentate ligand systems. Monodentate ligands are not reported to wield similar control, indicating steric contributions of complexing ligands may be as important as their electronic structure for synthesizing small nanoclusters.
