Doping with heteroatoms is a promising strategy to tune and improve the properties of thiolate-protected silver superatoms. By using gas-phase photoelectron spectroscopy, T. Tsukuda and co-workers reveal in their Communication on page 11637 that substitution of the central X+ cation in [XAg24(SR)18]− (X=Ag, Au) by a neutral Pd or Pt atom leads to an energy shift of the superatomic 1P orbitals by about 1.4 eV.
