Two isostructural Sn5-oxo clusters, (nBuSn)5(mu 3-O)2(EG4)L3 (H2EG = ethylene glycol, L = 4-tert-butylbenzoate or 4-hydroxybenzoate), were successfully prepared using (nBuSn)OH2Cl as tin source pre-cursor. Comparative studies on contact angle test and electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reveal that the 4-tert-butylbenzoate decorated Sn5 with a more hydrophobic surface shows higher catalytic activity.
