Highly monodisperse and pure samples of atomically precise gold nanomolecules (AuNMs) are essential to understand their properties and to develop applications using them. Unfortunately, the synthetic protocols that yield a single-sized nanomolecule in a single-step reaction are unavailable. Instead,...
