Physics and Chemistry of Metal Cluster Compounds: Model by L. J. De Jongh (auth.), L. J. De Jongh (eds.)

By L. J. De Jongh (auth.), L. J. De Jongh (eds.)

On Friday, February 20, 1980, I had the excitement to be current on the inaugural lecture of my colleague Jan Reedijk, who had simply been named on the Chair of Inorganic Chemistry of Leiden college. based on culture, the rite came about within the extraordinary corridor of the outdated collage Academy development. during his lecture, Jan pointed out a couple of fresh advancements in chemistry which had struck him as relatively vital or fascinating. between these used to be the synthesis of enormous steel cluster compounds, and, to my good fortune, he confirmed a slide ofthe molecular constitution of [PtI9(C)b]4-. (To my success, in view that at conventional Leiden collage it truly is particularly strange to teach slides at such ceremonies.) This constituted my first acquaintance with this interesting new type of fabrics. I grew to become instantly eager about this molecule, partially end result of the esthetic fantastic thing about its fivefold symmetry, partially simply because as a physicist it struck me that it may be visualized as an "embryonically small" steel particle, embedded in a shell of CO ligands.
