Redox properties of self-assembled gold nanoclusters.

چکیده
The redox properties of a monolayer of alkanethiolate-protected gold nanoclusters (MPCs) constructed on a gold slide electrode was studied in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) electrolyte solutions. The influence of the electrostatic interaction between attached MPCs and the substrate electrode on the absolute standard redox potential of MPCs was theoretically considered and studied experimentally.

متن کاملEngineering Nano-aggregates: β-Cyclodextrin Facilitates the Thiol-Gold Nanoparticle Self-Assembly
The structure and morphology of nonmaterial formed by colloidal synthesis represent a subject of interest as it is a factor deciding the physicochemical properties and biological applications of nanostructures. Among various nanoparticles, gold can develop fractal assembled patterns. Herein, we report a nano-aggregate of a thiol-on-gold self-assembled structure and the influence of β-cyclodextr...
متن کاملAbsolute standard redox potential of monolayer-protected gold nanoclusters.
The redox properties of monolayer-protected gold nanoclusters (MPCs) are considered from both the theoretical and experimental viewpoints. The "absolute standard redox potential" ([E0((z/z)-1))]abs) of MPCs is first derived from electrostatic considerations. A linear dependence of the absolute standard redox potential on the valence state of MPCs is theoretically predicted and verified experime...
متن کاملAsymmetric catalysis at the mesoscale: gold nanoclusters embedded in chiral self-assembled monolayer as heterogeneous catalyst for asymmetric reactions.
Research to develop highly versatile, chiral, heterogeneous catalysts for asymmetric organic transformations, without quenching the catalytic reactivity, has met with limited success. While chiral supramolecular structures, connected by weak bonds, are highly active for homogeneous asymmetric catalysis, their application in heterogeneous catalysis is rare. In this work, asymmetric catalyst was ...
متن کاملElectroactive self-assembled biferrocenyl alkanethiol monolayers on Au(111) surface and on gold nanoclusters.
The spectroscopic and electrochemical characterizations of electrochemically stable biferrocene-modified Au clusters and chemisorbed biferrocenylalkanethiols on Au(111) surface were studied. The characterizations of biferrocene-modified Au cluster using TEM, UV-vis, and NMR techniques are also reported. Two successive reversible one-electron redox waves were observed for the biferrocenylalkanet...
