The emergence of atomically precise metal nanoclusters with unique electronic structures provides access to currently inaccessible catalytic challenges at the single-electron level. We investigate the catalytic behavior of gold Au25(SR)18 nanoclusters by monitoring an incoming and outgoing free valence electron of Au 6s1. Distinct performances are revealed: Au25(SR)18- is generated upon donation of an electron to neutral Au25(SR)180 and this is associated with a loss in reactivity, whereas Au25(SR)18+ is generated from dislodgment of an electron from neutral Au25(SR)180 with a loss in stability. The reactivity diversity of the three Au25(SR)18 clusters stems from different affinities with reactants and the extent of intramol. charge migration during the reactions, which are closely associated with the valence occupancies of the clusters varied by one electron. The stability difference in the three clusters is attributed to their different equilibrium, which are established between the AuSR dissociation and polymerization influenced by one electron. The experimental part of the paper was very detailed, including the reaction process of 1H-Indole(cas: 120-72-9Electric Literature of C8H7N)
1H-Indole(cas: 120-72-9) belongs to indole. Indole, also called Benzopyrrole, a heterocyclic organic compound occurring in some flower oils, such as jasmine and orange blossom, in coal tar, and in fecal matter. It is used in perfumery and in making tryptophan, an essential amino acid, and indoleacetic acid (heteroauxin), a hormone that promotes the development of roots in plant cuttings.Electric Literature of C8H7N
