A supersalt-type copper(i)-thiolate cluster with applications for mechano/thermochromism and the oxygen evolution reaction

Abstract

A new copper(I)–thiolate (Cu–S) cluster with a CsCl unit (1, [Cu124-SCH3)6(NH3)12][Cu124-SCH3)6Cl12]) exhibited interesting mechanochromic and thermochromic luminescence properties. Additionally, heteroatom-rich 1 could also be used as an electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline media. The supersalt-type Cu–S cluster for the first time realized mechano/thermochromic and electrocatalytic applications.
