Structures of [Ag(SR)] and [Ag(DMSA)].

We have developed a new genetic algorithm approach to search for the global lowest-energy structures of ligand-protected metal clusters. In combination with density functional theory, our genetic algorithm simulations show that the ground state of [Ag(DMSA)]¯ has eight instead of four Ag-S bonds and...

      ab: We have developed a new genetic algorithm approach to search for the global lowest-energy structures of ligand-protected metal clusters. In combination with density functional theory, our genetic algorithm simulations show that the ground state of [Ag(DMSA)]¯ has eight instead of four Ag-S bonds and has a much lower energy than the structure based on the [Ag(SR)] cluster with a quasi-twodimensional Ag core. The simulated X-ray diffraction pattern of the [Ag(DMSA)]¯ cluster is in good agreement with the experimental result. Our calculations for the [Ag(SR)]¯ and [Ag(DMSA)]¯ clusters reveal for the first time that -RS-Ag-RScan be a stable motif in thiolate-protected Ag clusters. In addition, the lowest-energy structures of [AgS]¯, [AgS]¯, and [AgS]¯ are predicted.
