Using density functional theory, we examine the effects of a nitrogen atom adsorbed onto an anionic golden cage (Au$_{16}^-$) on the structural and electronic properties of the hollow structure. At the bridge and hollow sites, the binding energies are greater than 2.5 eV whereas they are about 1.5 eV at the atop sites. When the N atom is adsorbed on the cage, electrons are transferred to Au$_{16}^-$ from the N atom. In the infrared active vibrational spectra, exohedral doping gives rise to greater intensities than endohedral doping at higher frequencies.
