The geometric and electronic structures of a small series of mixed gold and platinum AuxPty2+ clusters, with x + y = 10, were investigated using quantum chemical methods. A consistent tetrahedral pyramid structure emerges, displaying two patterns of structural growth by a notable critical point at y = 5. This affects the clusters' electron population, chemical bonding, and stability. For the Pt-doped Au clusters with y values from 2 to 5, the bonds enable Pt atoms to assemble into symmetric line, triangle, quadrangle, and tetragonal pyramidal Pty blocks, respectively. For the Au-doped Pt clusters, with larger values of y > 5, the structures are more relaxed and the d electrons of Pt atoms become delocalized over more centers, leading to lower symmetry structures. A certain aromaticity arising from delocalization of d electrons over the multi-center framework in the doped Pt clusters contributes to their stability, with Pt102+ at y = 10 exhibiting the highest stability. While the ground electronic state of the neutral platinum atom [Xe]. 4f145d96s1 leads to a triplet state (3D3), the total magnetic moments of AuxPty2+ are large increasing steadily from 0 to 10 μB and primarily located on Pt atoms, corresponding to the increase of the number of Pt atoms from 0 to 10 and significantly enhancing the magnetic moments. An admixture of both Au and Pt atoms thus emerges as an elegant way of keeping a small pyramidal structure but bringing in a high and controllable magnetic moment.

RSC Advances
Chemistry fascinates us. This discipline is integral to life and impacts so many aspects of our world. The scope for RSC Advances is wide-ranging because we want to capture any research that can offer crucial insights and advance chemistry. RSC Advances papers should provide an insight that advances the chemistry field. Papers that contain little or no chemistry and are not considered to be of interest or relevance to the chemistry community are not within the scope of the journal. The criteria for publication are that the work must be high quality, well conducted and advance the development of the field. Articles submitted to the journal are evaluated by our international team of associate editors and reviewers for the overall quality and accuracy of the science presented. Download our full list of subject categories to see the range of topics we publish in RSC Advances. Please ensure you have considered the following points before submitting your manuscript. Does the work present an advance over the existing literature? Please supply a covering letter with your submission to demonstrate how the work is advancing the field over the existing literature Have you provided sufficient evidence/data to support your conclusions? Have you provided adequate characterisation data for your materials/compounds? (Please check the supporting information section to ensure that the necessary requirements have been met and copies of relevant spectra have been provided where necessary) Are the results discussed in the context of the literature? Are the references relevant and do they appropriately reflect the existing literature?
