Structure of Au(SR) and Its Implication for the Origin of the Nucleus in Thiolated Gold Nanoclusters.

Au(SR) is the smallest stable thiolated gold nanocluster experimentally identified so far, and its elusive structure may hold the key to the origin of the nucleus in the formation of thiolated gold nanoclusters. By an extensive exploration of possible isomers by density functional theory, we arrive...
