Abstract
The catalytic properties toward CO combustion of an encapsulated cluster V at the rate of [Au12.sup.-] were explored by means of plane-wave pseudopotential density-functional theory calculations. The cluster binds 12 CO molecules and cluster acts as catalyst since it enhances CO combustion under favorable conditions.
