Zintl ions composed of Group 13, 14, and 15 elements are multiply charged cluster anions that form the building blocks of the Zintl phase. Superalkalis, on the other hand, are cationic clusters that mimic the chemistry of the alkali atoms. It is, therefore, counterintuitive to expect that Zintl anions can be used as a core to construct superalkalis. In this paper, using density functional theory, we show that this is indeed possible. The results are compared with calculations at the MP2 level of theory. A systematic study of a P7(3-) Zintl core decorated with organic ligands [R = Me, CH2Me, CH(Me)2 and C(Me)3] shows that the ionization energies of some of the P7R4 species are smaller than those of the alkali atoms and hence can be classified as superalkalis. This opens the door to the design and synthesis of a new class of superalkali moieties apart from the traditional ones composed of only inorganic elements.
