Fig. 5: Structural anatomy of copper nanoclusters and transformation.
From: Photosynergetic ligand-exchange for modular synthesis of copper nanoclusters

a Total structure and structure anatomy of Cu32-P1. It describes the fusion of a Cu20Se19 core and two Cu9Se9P3 motifs. b Total structure and structure anatomy of Cu38-PyrrCa. The structure of Cu38-PyrrCa is derived from Cu32-P1 via P(pyrr)3 decomposition (pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid) and Cu–Cu bond cleavage/reconstruction. c Total structure and structure anatomy of Cu2-BINAP. d Total structure and structure anatomy of Cu3-DPPM. e Total structure and structure anatomy of Cu8-DPPP.
