Understanding isomerization in nanoparticles at the atomic level is critical to expanding the diversity of nanomaterials. In this issue of Chem, Xie, Häkkinen, and co-workers describe a new approach to realizing the reversible isomeric transformation of an atomically precise gold nanocluster by engineering intermolecular interactions between cationic surfactants and anionic ligands on the cluster surface.
