Abstract
The construction of silver (I) thiolate nanoclusters is challenging because they involve the assembly of multiple components. Anionic template method is a simple and effective method for the synthesis of silver (I) thiolate nanoclusters, especially for the control of their structures. In this mini review, we briefly summarizes the recent progress in the synthesis, crystal structures and luminescence of silver (I) thiolate nanoclusters, which template by simple ball-like anions (halogen and S2−), trigonal anions (CO32− and NO3−), even complex POM anions ([W6O21]6− and Mo6O228−). The size and type of anion templates play important roles in shaping the final silver (I) thiolate nanoclusters.
