Clusters with Seven or More Metal Atoms

7 Clusters with Seven or More Metal Atoms 

In Table 2.7, a select group of organometallic clusters with different nuclearities are described. Geometries adopted by some of the structures of large clusters in this table are shown schematically in Fig. 2.26. 

The tendency towards the formation of structures formally produced by the condensation of structures of lower nuclearity by sharing edges and faces observed for hexanuclear clusters is reinforced in larger clusters.
