A new method that utilizes ligation to probe geometries of clusters in the gas-phase has been developed. This technique bases structural assignments on thermodynamic quantities obtained for sequential ligand additions to a bare cluster. The information is obtained from temperature-dependent equilibrium data. This method is also sensitive to changes in bare cluster conformations that occur as a result of ligand addition, and the results can be fine-tuned by choosing ligands that appropriately adjust cluster-ligand binding energies.
