FULL PAPER Water-soluble Au nanoparticles: from catalytic selective nitroarene reduction in water to refractive index sensing
Water-soluble gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) stabilized by a nitrogen-rich PEG-tagged substrate have been prepared by reduction of HAuCl4 with NaBH4 in water at room temperature. The morphology and size of the nanoparticles can be controlled by simply varying the gold/stabilizer ratio. The nanoparticles have been fully characterized by TEM, HRTEM, ED, EDS, UV-vis, p-XRD and elemental analysis. The...
متن کاملRefractive index investigations of nanoparticles dispersed in water
The refractive index of nanoparticles dispersed in water is measured, using the total internal reflection method. The critical angle is determined by the disappearance of diffraction orders from a metal grating. The investigated nanoparticles are titanium dioxide (anatase phase), (35 nm diameter), zinc oxide, (<50 nm diameter), zirconium dioxide, (<100 nm diameter). The refractive index is meas...
متن کاملWater-soluble gold nanoparticles protected by fluorinated amphiphilic thiolates.
The preparation and the properties of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) protected by perfluorinated amphiphiles are described. The thiols were devised to form a perfluorinated region close to the gold surface and to have a hydrophilic portion in contact with the bulk solvent to impart solubility in water. The monolayer protected clusters were prepared, in an homogeneous phase using sodium thiolates b...
متن کاملDistant protonated pyridine groups in water-soluble iron porphyrin electrocatalysts promote selective oxygen reduction to water.
Fe(III)-meso-tetra(pyridyl)porphyrins are electrocatalysts for the reduction of dioxygen in aqueous acidic solution. The 2-pyridyl derivatives, both the triflate and chloride salts, are more selective for the desired 4e(-) reduction than the isomeric 4-pyridyl complexes. The inward-pointing pyridinium groups influence proton delivery despite their distance from the iron centre.
متن کاملWater-soluble amphiphilic gold nanoparticles with structured ligand shells.
Highly water-soluble mixed monolayer protected "rippled" gold nanoparticles were synthesized through a one step reaction with sodium 11-mercaptoundecanesulfonate and octanethiol ligands at various ratios.
