Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The mixed-metal clusters which are formed by assembly of different metal elements have been of great interest due to the potential ability to exert improved chemical reactivities and physical properties. Although numerous efforts have been made to synthesize mixed-metal clusters, it has been difficult to construct giant mixed-metal clusters containing ten or more metal atoms in a manner that metal arrangements are contolled precisely. This causes the difficulty of understanding of the properties and function of mixed-metal clusters. In this work, we successfully developed the chemical method to control metal arrangement in a decanuclear metal chain clusters. We found that metalation-demetalation-metalation sequence is a powerful method to construct the mixed-metal chain clusters.
