ABSTRACT
The formation of high-nuclearity silver(I) clusters remains elusive and their potential applications are still underdeveloped. Herein, we firstly prepared a chain-like thiolated AgI complex {[Ag18 (St Bu)10 (NO3 )8 (CH3 CN)2 (H2 O)2 ] â
[Ag18 (St Bu)10 (NO3 )8 (CH3 CN)6 ]}n (abbreviated as Ag18 ) in which two similar Ag18 clusters are assembled by NO3 - anions. The solution containing Ag18 reacted with hydrogen sulfide with controlled concentration, promptly producing another identifiable and bright red-emitting high-nuclearity silver(I) cluster, Ag62 (S)13 (St Bu)32 (NO3 )4 (abbreviated as Ag62 ). We tracked the transformation using time-dependent electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), UV/Vis absorption and photoluminescence spectra. Based on this cluster transformation, we further developed an ultra-sensitive turn-on sensor detecting H2 S gas with an ultrafast response time (30â
s) at a low detection limit (0.13â
ppm). This work opens a new way of understanding the growth of metal clusters and developing their luminescent sensing applications.
