    Manzhou Zhu
    Department of Chemistry, Anhui University, Hefei, Anhui 230026, PR China
    Nanoscale 3:1703-7. 2011
    ..In contrast, with NaX salts the Na(+) ions do not provide any steric stabilization of the [Au(25)(SCH(2)CH(2)Ph)(18)](-) clusters, hence, degradation occurs when being further attacked by halide ions, especially Br(-) and I(-)...
