Abstract Sub‐nanometer metal clusters have special physical and chemical properties, significantly different from those of nanoparticles. However, there is a major concern about their thermal stability and susceptibility to oxidation. In situ X‐ray Absorption spectroscopy and Near Ambient Pressure X‐ray Photoelectron spectroscopy results reveal that supported Cu 5 clusters are resistant to irreversible oxidation at least up to 773 K, even in the presence of 0.15 mbar of oxygen. These experimental findings can be formally described by a theoretical model which combines dispersion‐corrected DFT and first principles thermochemistry revealing that most of the adsorbed O 2 molecules are transformed into superoxo and peroxo species by an interplay of collective charge transfer within the network of Cu atoms and large amplitude “breathing” motions. A chemical phase diagram for Cu oxidation states of the Cu 5 ‐oxygen system is presented, clearly different from the already known bulk and nano‐structured chemistry of Cu.
