Area of Science:

  • Inorganic Chemistry
  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • High-nuclearity silver nanoclusters are of interest for their unique structural and photophysical properties.
  • Templated synthesis offers a route to control the assembly and properties of nanoclusters.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize and characterize two new high-nuclearity silver nanoclusters using chromate and molybdate templates.
  • To investigate the influence of template molecules on the self-assembly process and resulting properties of silver nanoclusters.
  • To study the absorption and luminescence properties of the synthesized nanoclusters.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of silver nanoclusters using chromate and molybdate templates.
  • Structure determination via single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
  • Characterization using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and Fourier transform infrared (FT IR) spectroscopy.
  • Photophysical property evaluation (absorption and luminescence).
  • Computational investigation using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT).

Main Results:

  • Two distinct silver nanoclusters, (CrO4)@Ag19(CCPh)7(Ph2PO2)8(H2O)·(BF4)2·CH3OH (YL-1) and (MoO4)@Ag19(CCPh)9(Ph2PO2)7·(OTf)·CH3OH (YL-5), were successfully synthesized and structurally characterized.
  • Nanocluster YL-5 displayed temperature-dependent green fluorescence at 77 K with a maximum emission at 497 nm.
  • DFT and TD-DFT calculations were employed to investigate the excitation properties of both nanoclusters.

Conclusions:

  • The choice of template molecule significantly influences the self-assembly process, leading to different nanocluster structures.
  • The template molecule plays a crucial role in determining the photophysical properties, such as luminescence, of the resulting silver nanoclusters.
  • This study underscores the importance of templating in designing functional silver nanoclusters with tailored properties.
