A photo-induced transformation from [Au23(S-c-C6)16]−(TOA)+to Au28(S-c-C6)20nanocluster was first reported in this work. The [Au23(S-c-C6)16]−(TOA)+nanocluster is first excited to [Au23(S-c-C6)16]•–(TOA)+by photons with energy higher than itsEg(Eg= HOMO – LUMO energy gap), and then, the negatively charged [Au23(S-c-C6)16]•–nanocluster was oxidized to the neutral state by transfering one electron to O2. The unstable neutral cluster [Au23(S-c-C6)16]0obtained was decomposed into smaller nanocluster and finally reassembled into the Au28(S-c-C6)20nanocluster. Time-dependent UV–vis, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry, electron paramagnetic resonance, and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry characterizations were performed to monitor the nanocluster size transformation.
