A route to metalloligands consolidated silver nanoclusters by grafting thiacalix[4]arene onto polyoxovanadates

Abstract Metalloligands provide a potent strategy for manipulating the surface metal arrangements of metal nanoclusters, but their synthesis and subsequent installation onto metal nanoclusters remains a significant challenge. Herein, two atomically precise silver nanoclusters {Ag14[(TC4A)6(V9O16)](C...

description Abstract Metalloligands provide a potent strategy for manipulating the surface metal arrangements of metal nanoclusters, but their synthesis and subsequent installation onto metal nanoclusters remains a significant challenge. Herein, two atomically precise silver nanoclusters {Ag14[(TC4A)6(V9O16)](CyS)3} (Ag14) and {Ag43S[(TC4A)2(V4O9)]3(CyS)9(PhCOO)3Cl3(SO4)4(DMF)3·6DMF} (Ag43) are synthesized by controlling reaction temperature (H4TC4A = p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene). Interestingly, the 3D scaffold-like [(TC4A)6(V9O16)]11- metalloligand in Ag14 and 1D arcuate [(TC4A)2(V4O9)]6 - metalloligand in Ag43 exhibit a dual role that is the internal polyoxovanadates as anion template and the surface TC4A4- as the passivating agent. Furthermore, the thermal-induced structure transformation between Ag14 and Ag43 is achieved based on the temperature-dependent assembly process. Ag14 shows superior photothermal conversion performance than Ag43 in solid state indicating its potential for remote laser ignition. Here, we show the potential of two thiacalix[4]arene modified polyoxovanadates metalloligands in the assembly of metal nanoclusters and provide a cornerstone for the remote laser ignition applications of silver nanoclusters.
