Packing Model

The calculation of molecular coordination numbers (MCNs), and topological and geometrical analysis of the environment of molecules in the crystal structures of 23 067 organic compounds, shows that Kitaigorodskii's close-packing model, assuming the predominance of MCN = 12, works correctly in only a few cases, whereas MCN = 14 is the most frequent. To explain this fact the close-packing model is extended with the model of the thinnest covering of space by deformable molecules. It is shown that the packing of molecules of arbitrary shape and composition can be better described with geometrical, but not topological, parameters of their short-range environment, which is conveniently characterized by molecular Voronoi–Dirichlet polyhedra.

Points Of View

Metallic clusters are interesting from various points of view, e.g. as a mean of spreading expensive catalysts on a support, or following heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic events. It is also possible to study nucleation and growth mechanisms for crystals with the cluster as known starting point.Gold-clusters containing 55 atoms were manufactured by reducing (C6H5)3PAuCl with B2H6 in benzene. The chemical composition was found to be Au9.2[P(C6H5)3]2Cl. Molecular-weight determination by means of an ultracentrifuge gave the formula Au55[P(C6H5)3]Cl6 A model was proposed from Mössbauer spectra by Schmid et al. with cubic close-packing of the 55 gold atoms in a cubeoctahedron as shown in Fig 1. The cluster is almost completely isolated from the surroundings by the twelve triphenylphosphane groups situated in each corner, and the chlorine atoms on the centre of the 3x3 square surfaces. This gives four groups of gold atoms, depending on the different types of surrounding.
