INDUCING ACTIVE SITES IN CLUSTERS: REACTIVITY OF Al13Ix- and Al14Iy- (x=0-2, y=2-4) WITH METHANOL
Size selective reactivity has been observed in pure aluminum cluster anions as a result of Lewis acid and base pairs. Using this a starting point, the goal of this study has been to explore how reactivity is affected with the addition of one or more ligand, which may induce active sites on the surf...
