Abstract

Room for one more? The structures of nanosized Pd52 and Pd66 clusters that are based upon a common Pd38 vertex-truncated ν-octahedral kernel have been determined. The 45 CO ligands in the Pd66 cluster (see core structure), [Pd66(CO)45(PEt3)16], are described in terms of one extra and 44 normal ligands, two of which undergo rearrangement to accommodate the 45th CO ligand without causing any substantial changes to the architecture of the metal core.
