Figure 2
Structure of Au12Ag32(p-MBA)304− using displacement ellipsoids that were drawn at the 50% probability level for three different views of the structure. Au atoms are depicted in orange, Ag atoms in grey, and S atoms in yellow. Views are (a) down a fourfold axis of the pseudooctahedral structure, (b) with one 31.7° rotation from (a) about the horizontal axis, and (c) with two 45° rotations from (a) about the horizontal and vertical axes. The organic portion of the molecule was omitted for clarity. |
