ABSTRACTThiolate-gold nanoclusters exhibit unique optical, magnetic and chiral properties, which are attractive for novel applications in nanotechnology. A fundamental challenge facing these nanomaterials is being able to study and understand their physical properties in various experimental conditions. To overcome this, extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy can be employed to probe the Au local structure of thiolate-gold nanoclusters in a variety of conditions, providing valuable structural information from multiple bonding environments (i.e. metal-metal and metal-ligand interactions). This study discusses a methodology for conducting a multishell EXAFS fitting analysis that can be implemented for thiolate-gold nanocluster systems. Specifically, experimental and simulated EXAFS data for Au36(SR)24 nanoclusters are examined with a total of 5 scattering paths fitted to the experimental data.

Thirteen mononuclear, homobinuclear and heterobinuclear transition metal complexes of 4,6-di(2- pyridyl)pyrimidine have been prepared. Assignments of the 1H n.m.r. spectra of the molybdenum(0) and ruthenium(II) complexes were achieved by a combination of one- and two-dimensional n.m.r. techniques, especially 1D-TOCSY. For the ruthenium complexes, electronic absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry were used to probe the nature of the metal{ligand and, for the binuclear complexes, metal-metal interactions. The complexes have low HOMO−LUMO energy gaps. Meta-metal interactions are shown to be of similar magnitude to those in complexes of the better-studied ligands 2,2′-bipyrimidine and 2,3-di(2-pyridyl)pyrazine.
