Abstract
Two polyhedral silver-thiolate clusters, [S@Ag16(Tab)10(MeCN)8](PF6)14 (Ag16) and [Ag12(Tab)6(DMF)12](PF6)12 (Ag12), were synthesized by using electroneutral Tab species as protective ligands (Tab=4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate, DMF=N,N-dimethylformamide, MeCN=acetonitrile). Ag16 has a decahedral shape composed of eight pentagon {Ag5} units and two square {Ag4} units. The structure of Ag12 is a cuboctahedron, a classical Archimedean structure composed of six triangular faces and eight square faces. The former configuration is discovered in silver-thiolate cluster for the first time, possibly benefited from the more flexible coordination between the Tab ligand and Ag+ facilitated by the electropositive -N(CH3)3 + substituent group. Third-order nonlinear optical studies show that both clusters in DMF exhibit reverse saturate absorption response under the irradiation of 532 nm laser.

Abstract
In the dynamic landscape of nanotechnology, atomically precise silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) have emerged as a novel and promising category of materials with their fascinating properties and enormous potential. However, recent research endeavors have surged towards stabilizing Ag-based NCs, leading to innovative strategies like connecting cluster nodes with organic linkers to construct hierarchical structures, thus forming Ag-based cluster-assembled materials (CAMs). This approach not only enhances structural stability, but also unveils unprecedented opportunities for CAMs, overcoming the limitations of individual Ag NCs. In this context, this review delves into the captivating realm of atomically precise nitrogen-based ligand bonded Ag(I)-based CAMs, providing insights into synthetic strategies, structure-property relationships, and diverse applications. We navigate the challenges and advancements in integrating Ag(I) cluster nodes, bound by argentophilic interactions, into highly connected periodic frameworks with different dimensionalities using nitrogen-based linkers. Despite the inherent diversity among cluster nodes, Ag(I) CAMs demonstrate promising potential in sensing, catalysis, bio-imaging, and device fabrication, which all are discussed in this review. Therefore, gaining insight into the silver nanocluster assembly process will offer valuable information, which can enlighten the readers on the design and advancement of Ag(I) CAMs for state-of-the-art applications.

Abstract
The exploration of individual nanoclusters is rapidly advancing, despite stability concerns. To address this challenge, the assembly of cluster nodes through linker molecules has been successfully implemented. However, the linking of the cluster nodes itself introduces a multitude of possibilities, especially when additional factors come into play. While this method proves effective in enhancing material stability, the specific reasons behind its success remain elusive. In our laboratory, we have undertaken extensive studies on Ag cluster-assembled materials. So, here our goal is to establish a model system that allows for the discernment of various factors, eliminating unnecessary complexities during the linking approach. So, we hope that the systematic discourse presented in here will contribute significantly to future endeavors, helping to set clear priorities, and provide solutions to concerns that arise when working with a model system.

Abstract
The presence of DMSO provides a unique ability to stabilize silver toroidal complexes in the direct reaction between AgStBu and AgNO3 at 80 °C. Slow cooling results in large crystals of [NO3@Ag19.2(StBu)10(DMSO)5.2(NO3)8.2]·3DMSO (1), which were isolated and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis. The crystal structure contains both {Ag20(StBu)10} and {Ag19(StBu)10} clusters. The solution of these material in DMSO was studied with HPLC techniques, which demonstrated the presence of both complexes in solution. The use of [SiW12O40]4– as counter anion gives crystals of a double complex salt [Ag17.8(NO3)3.8(StBu)10][SiW12O40]·30DMSO (2) under the same conditions. Temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) was studied.

Abstract
Accurately controlling the assembly of nanometer-sized building blocks presents an important but significant challenge for the construction of functional framework materials, which requires the development of highly stable versatile nanosized assembly modules with multiple coordination sites. In this study, [Ag23(SAdm)12]3+ (Ag23, in which SAdm = 1-adamantanethiol, i.e., C10H15S), a chiral superatom complex nanocluster, was synthesized and assembled into various topologies. We constructed two kinds of framework materials, i.e., superatom complex inorganic framework (SCIF) and superatom complex organic framework (SCOF) materials, including [Ag23(SAdm)12](SbF6)2X (Ag23-1; X = Cl-/SbF6-, a SCIF), [Ag23(SAdm)12](SbF6)3 (Ag23-2, a SCIF), [Ag23(SAdm)12](SbF6)3(bpy)3 (Ag23-bpy, a SCOF, in which bpy = 4,4'-bipyridine, i.e., C10H8N2), and [Ag23(SAdm)12](SbF6)3(dpbz)3 (Ag23-dpbz, a SCOF, in which dpbz = 1,4-bis(4-pyridyl)benzene, i.e., C16H12N2), owing to strong interactions between the versatile Ag23 and the inorganic and organic linkers. Ag23-1, Ag23-2, and Ag23-bpy exhibit two superstructures with interpenetrating frameworks and adamantane-like, hexagonal, and cubic topologies, while Ag23-dpbz displays three superstructures with interpenetrating frameworks and cubic topologies. Ag23-dpbz exhibits the largest specific surface area as well as the strongest photoluminescence and electrochemiluminescence signals owing to its dense network arrangement. This work contributes to the construction of nanocluster-based framework materials and helps to elucidate the effect of the assembly mode on the material properties and functionalities.

We study the relationship between the atomic structures of Ag-CBPs determined by x-ray diffraction and the electrical properties in the presence of organic solvents (e.g., methanol and ethanol). The ligands, cations, and the ligated solvent molecules not only play an important role in the self-assembly process of Ag-CBP materials but also determine their physiochemical properties such as the sensing functionality.

Abstract
Screening of AgNO3/AgStBu solutions in DMF, DMSO and NMP resulted in the isolation of three novel nanosized silver/thiolate complexes with a torus-like {Ag20(StBu)10} core. The structures of [NO3@Ag20(StBu)10(NO3)9(DMF)6] (1) and [NO3@Ag20(tBuS)10(NO3)8(NMP)8][NO3@Ag19(tBuS)10(NO3)8(NMP)6]2(NO3) (2) were studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). The self-assembly process leading to 1 can be switched to a different outcome using Br-, resulting in [Br@Ag16(StBu)8(NO3)5(DMF)3](NO3)2 (3), which is the one of the few genuine host-guest complexes in the silver/thiolate systems. Solutions of the individual complexes in CH3CN were studied by HR-ESI-MS techniques, which revealed a dynamic behavior for each complex, driven by a redistribution of the {AgNO3} units. This dynamics results in the appearance of both cationic and anionic species, based on unchanged silver-thiolate cores. Daylight causes degradation of 3 with the formation of a composite material based on defective orthorhombic Ag2S with a porous morphology, as observed using the SEM technique. The electrocatalytic HER activity of such a material was studied.

Abstract
Many metal clusters are intrinsically chiral but are often synthesized as a racemic mixture. By taking chiral Ag14(SPh(CF3)2)12(PPh3)4(DMF)4 (Ag14) clusters with bulky thiolate ligands as an example, we demonstrate herein an interesting assembly disassembly (ASDS) strategy to obtain the corresponding, optically pure crystals of both homochiral enantiomers, R-Ag14m and S-Ag14m. The ASDS strategy makes use of two bidentate linkers with different chiral configurations, namely, (1R,2R,N1E,N2E)-N1,N2-bis(pyridin-3-ylmethylene)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine (LR) and the corresponding chiral analogue LS. For comparison, we also use the racemic mixture of equimolar of LR and LS (LRS). Three three-dimensional (3D) Ag14-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were characterized by X-ray crystallography to be [Ag14(SPh(CF3)2)12(PPh3)4(LR)2]n (Ag14-LR), [Ag14(SPh(CF3)2)12(PPh3)4(LS)2]n (Ag14-LS), and [Ag14(SPh(CF3)2)12(PPh3)4(LRS)2]n (Ag14-LRS), respectively. As expected, the building blocks in Ag14-LR or Ag14-LS are homochiral R-Ag14 or S-Ag14, respectively. In contrast, Ag14-LRS is achiral and crystallizes with a diamond-like structure containing alternate R-Ag14 and S-Ag14 clusters. During the assembly process, the racemic Ag14 clusters were converted to homochiral building blocks, namely, R-Ag14 for Ag14-LR and S-Ag14 for Ag14-LS. Subsequently, the chiral linkers were removed from the crystals of Ag14-LR and Ag14-LS via hydrolysis with water, and from the disassembled solid material Ag14-DR and Ag14-DS, optically pure enantiomers R-Ag14m and S-Ag14m were obtained. It is hoped that this simple assembly strategy can be used to construct cluster-based chiral assemblage materials and that the subsequent disassembly protocol can be used to obtain optically pure chiral cluster molecules from as-prepared racemic mixtures.

Abstract
Metal nanoclusters (NCs), which consist of several, to about one hundred, metal atoms, have attracted much attention as functional nanomaterials for use in nanotechnology. Because of their fine particle size, metal NCs exhibit physical/chemical properties and functions different from those of the corresponding bulk metal. In recent years, many techniques to precisely synthesize metal NCs have been developed. However, to apply these metal NCs in devices and as next-generation materials, it is necessary to assemble metal NCs to a size that is easy to handle. Recently, multiple techniques have been developed to form one-, two-, and three-dimensional connected structures (CSs) of metal NCs through self-assembly. Further progress of these techniques will promote the development of nanomaterials that take advantage of the characteristics of metal NCs. This review summarizes previous research on the CSs of metal NCs. We hope that this review will allow readers to obtain a general understanding of the formation and functions of CSs and that the obtained knowledge will help to establish clear design guidelines for fabricating new CSs with desired functions in the future.
