The formulas of transition metal clusters can be regarded as multiples of their respective PRIMARY CLUSTERS  and K(n) parameters. A primary cluster of a transition metal skeletal element can be defined as that  cluster of a mono-skeletal element which obeys the 18 electron rule. Such clusters, among others include, Cr(CO)6, Fe(CO)5, Ni(CO)4, and Zn(CO)3 and the respective K values of the skeletal elements are 6, 5, 4 and 3. The selected K(n) series are given and the derived hypothetical golden clusters are given as examples for illustrations. Selected known golden clusters are also found to be multiples of K(n) parameters and the 18 valence fragment cluster, AuL3.5. The graphical representations of a few selected examples of golden clusters are given.

Biomass-based renewable hydrocarbon fuel is a complex mix that contains many oxygenating substances, in particular phenolics, which leads to adverse consequences such as reduced engine energy performance and increased toxic gas emissions.

The stable 48-metal Ln36Co12 clusters show an effective water oxidation activity under weak acidic conditions because of the synergistic effect between lanthanide and transition metals in O–O bond formation.

Scaling relations on the basis of accurate DFT results are a useful tool for analyzing size-dependent properties of transition metal clusters and adsorption complexes on such systems.
