Metalloid Clusters

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Clusters – Contemporary Insight in Structure and Bonding

Part of the book series: Structure and Bonding ((STRUCTURE,volume 174))

Abstract

Metalloid cluster compounds of the general formulae M n R m (n > m; M=metal like Al, Au, Sn, etc.; R=ligand like S-C6H4-COOH, N(SiMe3)2, etc.) represent a novel group of cluster compounds localized within the nanoscaled area between molecules and the solid state, opening our eyes to the complexity and the fundamental principles of the dissolution and the formation of metals. Only in recent years, synthetic routes were established to get access to this most complex group of metal atom clusters. Here, the synthetic routes and the structure and bonding of metalloid clusters of group 13 and group 14 are discussed, showing that within this, also technologically important nanoscaled regime novel motives are realized, partly comparable to arrangements known from the elemental metals themselves. However, also completely novel and unpredicted structures are realized, indicating that the knowledge of the nanoscaled regime of metals is still in its infancy. Consequently, the synthesis and characterization of metalloid clusters can be used to establish a sound structural basis for metal nanoparticles not only for bare metals but for all metals of the periodic table.

Dedicated to Professor Hansgeorg Schnöckel on the occasion of his 75th birthday.
