Functionalized thiosemicarbazone clusters of copper(I) and silver(I).
Reaction of [Cu(MeCN)(4)](+) with thiosemicarbazones bearing groups such as phenol, pyridine, or ferrocene gives tetranuclear or hexanuclear clusters with functional substituents; analogous air stable fluorescent clusters can also be prepared with Ag(I).
