Abstract
Is cluster symmetry so important? The combination of uranyl, peroxide, and pyrophosphate in aqueous solution results in the self-assembly of highly complex clusters (see figure) containing 45 uranyl bipyramids and 23 pyrophosphate groups. These clusters are built from three basic structural units, and are highly unusual because they completely lack symmetry. They provide a window into the complex chemistry of evolving cluster topologies under the conditions of their formation.
