Article Synopsis
  • Research highlights the significance of subnanometric particles in both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, with a focus on monodisperse gold clusters.
  • By depositing these gold clusters onto porous titania, the study creates model systems that show a strong correlation between cluster size and catalytic activity.
  • The findings emphasize the importance of optimizing the number of gold atoms in clusters to achieve highly efficient catalytic performance, particularly in the bromination of 1,4-dimethoxybenzene.

A pulsed arc discharge source was used to prepare gas-phase, aluminum hydride cluster anions, Al(n)H(m) (-), exhibiting enhanced hydrogen content. The maximum number of hydrogen atoms in Al(n)H(m) (-) species was m=3n+1 for n=5-8, i.e.
