ABSTRACT

A novel classification scheme for inorganic cluster compounds is presented based on the characteristics of their electronic structures. In the classification scheme, five distinct categories have been introduced, including Jellium clusters, Wadian clusters, electron-precise clusters, π-donor ligated metal-metal bonded clusters, and antiferromagnetically coupled high-spin metal clusters.
