Diselenophosphate Ligands as a Surface Engineering Tool in PdH-Doped Silver Superatomic Nanoclusters.

ABSTRACT: The first hydride-doped Pd/Ag superatoms stabilized by selenolates are reported: [PdHAg₁₉(dsep)₁₂] [dsep = Se₂P(OⁱPr)₂] 1 and [PdHAg₂₀(dsep)₁₂]⁺ 2. 1 was derived from the targeted transformation of [PdHAg₁₉(dtp)₁₂] [dtp = S₂P(OⁱPr)₂] by ligand exchange, whereas 2 was obtained from the addition of trifluoroacetic acid to 1, resulting in a symmetric redistribution of the capping silver atoms. The transformations are all achieved while retaining an 8-electron superatomic configuration. VT-NMR attests to the good stability of the NCs in solution, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals the crucial ro
