Abstract

The first cluster containing acc was prepared via supramolecular self-assembly. This Cu(II) cluster traps Na(+), as shown in the solid state by the crystal structure and in solution by ESI-MS. Further characterisations revealed a ferromagnetic intracluster exchange and an irreversible reduction with a rapid intracluster electron transfer.
