Predictive Gold Nanocluster Formation Controlled by Metal-Ligand Complexes

January 9, 2012
Author(s)
John M. Pettibone, Jeffrey W. Hudgens
The formation of ligand-protected transition metal nanoclusters in size-selective syntheses is driven by the inherent properties of the protecting ligands. We have previously reported the selective, monodisperse product formation of phosphine protected Au

2-Bromo-3,3,3-Trifluoropropene: OH Reaction Rate Constant, IR Absorption Spectrum, Ozone Depletion Potentials and Global Warming Potentials
