Systematic synthesis of heterometallic Ni/Fe/S and Cu/Fe/S clusters with a pentlandite-like M8S6 core.
The systematic synthesis of heterometallic Ni/Fe/S and Cu/Fe/S clusters with a M8S6 core structure that resembles that of pentlandite minerals is described. The chemical properties and electronic structures of the new clusters have been investigated and are reported in this communication.
