N2 - In this work, we report the controllable synthesis and characterization of four atomically precise silver clusters, Ag18(SbW9O33)2(DPPP)8 (1, DPPP = 1,3-bis(diphenyphosphino)propane), Ag18(SbW9O33)2(DPPB)8 (2, DPPB = 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane), Ag18(SbW9O33)2(DPPPe)8 (3, DPPPe = 1,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)pentane), and Ag18(SbW9O33)2(TPP)14 (4, TPP = triphenylphosphine) by using a facile one-pot solvothermal approach. The resulting four Ag clusters exhibit similar lacunary [SbW9O33]9‒ ({SbW9O33})-sandwiched structures, which can be adjusted by the external different phosphine ligands. In addition, all four clusters display variable physicochemical and catalytic performance, correlating well to their distinct molecular structures.
