This cover depicts the structure of a superatomic nanocluster constructed via an unprecedented three-dimensional assembly of four Au13 icosahedra. Unique phosphorus ligand sets with hydrogen-bonding and π–π stacking provide clockwise and counter-clockwise surface orientations, resulting in unexpected C4i symmetry. The adjacent gold centers serve as active sites for efficient oxygen reduction.
