Two-Dimensional Nanosheets from Redox-Active Superatoms

Abstract: We describe a new approach to synthesize two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets from the bottom-up. We functionalize redox-active superatoms with groups that can direct their assembly into multidimensional solids. We synthesized Co6Se8[PEt2(4-C6H4COOH)]6 and found that it forms a crystalline assembly. The solid-state structure is a three-dimensional (3D) network in which the carboxylic acids form intercluster hydrogen bonds. We modify the self-assembly by replacing the reversible hydrogen bonds that hold the superato… Show more

“…Synthetic metal-chalcogenide clusters have been actively studied for decades owing to their applications in a number of diverse settings. For example, they serve as models for the active sites of Fe-S proteins, [1][2][3] as building blocks in nanomaterials, [4][5][6][7] and as catalysts in their own right. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Their broad utility in both biological and abiological contexts derives in part from the diversity of their geometric and electronic structures.…”

“…Along with previously described 1D‐, and 2D‐materials, 3D‐crystalline materials were obtained via solvothermal reaction of a [Co 6 Se 8 PEt 2 (4‐C 6 H 4 COOH)] 6 building block with a divalent zinc source . The carboxylic acid functionalized cluster forms two types of materials upon reaction with Zn(NO 3 ) 2 in which the dimensionality is controlled by small alterations in the solvent system from DMF/methanol to DMF/ethanol.…”
