title: High-yield synthesis and crystal structure of a green Au₃₀ cluster co-capped by thiolate and sulfide.
abstract: A green gold-cluster, Au30S(StBu)18, was successfully prepared in high yield and crystallographically characterized. Each cluster consists of an Au22 core capped by a mixed layer of staple Au-thiolate units, bridging thiolates and a μ3-S(2-).
