Abstract
Geometries of several all-metal clusters with Zn32â as the base are optimized within a B3LYP/6-311+G(d) level of theory. It is analyzed that the stability, bonding, reactivity and aromaticity patterns of such clusters often change drastically in the presence of counter cations like Li+, Na+ or K+ and/or through the substitution of Zn32â units by Be5â or C5H5â rings.
