Silver nanoclusters protected by amino acids were synthesized and characterized in this study. Chiral superatomic silver nanoclusters with T symmetry were prepared, showing homochirality as evidenced by CD measurements. The CD signals were mainly contributed by the Ag s,p states near the Fermi level.
Silver nanoclusters containing Ag-0 atoms protected by amino acids were synthesized and characterized. Chiral superatomic silver nanoclusters [Ag47L12(C equivalent to(CBu)-Bu-t)(16)]BF4 (L=l-/d-valine or l-/d-isoleucine) have been prepared by reducing AgC equivalent to(CBu)-Bu-t and amino acids (AAs) with NaBH4. Single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that these clusters have T symmetry, and the Ag-47 metal kernel can be viewed as a tetracapped truncated tetrahedron (Ag-17) surrounded with six W-shaped Ag-5 units. The clusters are homochiral as evidenced by CD measurements. As for the strong CD signals, large contributions are found from the occupied Ag s,p states (superatomic D states) near the Fermi level. Electron counting revealed that these clusters are 18-electron systems, suggesting they are superatomic clusters. The superatomic nature with a 1S(2)1P(6)1D(10) configuration was supported by DFT calculations. This work paves the way of taking AAs as facile chiral induction agents for the synthesis of metal nanoclusters.
