Isolation and structural characterization of magic silver clusters protected by 4-(tert-butyl)benzyl mercaptan.

چکیده
Small silver clusters (average diameter of 1.2 nm) protected by 4-(tert-butyl)benzyl mercaptan (BBSH) were converted to stable, monodisperse clusters (2.1 nm) by a ripening process with excess amount of BBSH. Multiple characterizations of the isolated magic clusters revealed an approximate chemical composition of Ag(∼280)(SBB)(∼120).

Controlled synthesis and characterization of the elusive thiolated Ag55 cluster.
A stable, Ag55 cluster protected with 4-(tert-butyl)benzyl mercaptan (BBSH) was synthesized which exhibits two prominent absorption bands with maxima at 2.25 and 2.81 eV. A molecular ion peak at m/z 11 500 ± 20 in matrix assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrum (MALDI MS), assigned to Ag55(BBS)31 was observed. Electrospray ionization (ESI MS) shows a prominent trication along with hig...
متن کاملFast and environmental-friendly degradation of tert-butyl mercaptan from contaminated soil using bimetallic-modified Fenton process
In this work, the fast remediation of tert-butyl mercaptan from the polluted soil via a bimetallic Fenton treatment that included Fe2+/Fe3+/Fe0/Cu2+ in the presence of gasoline was studied. The analysis of variance and the Pareto analysis resulting from the central composite design (CCD) showed that the H2O2, CuSO4<...
متن کاملMixed-Monolayer-Protected Au25 Clusters with Bulky Calix[4]arene Functionalities.
Although various complex, bulky ligands have been used to functionalize plasmonic gold nanoparticles, introducing them to small, atomically precise gold clusters is not trivial. Here, we demonstrate a simple one-pot procedure to synthesize fluorescent magic number Au25 clusters carrying controlled amounts of bulky calix[4]arene functionalities. These clusters are obtained from a synthesis feed ...
متن کاملThe Oxidative Stress of Mercaptan Odorant Due to Occupational Exposure: Adverse Effects on the Cholinergic System
Background: Tert-butyl mercaptan is one of the frequently used odorants derived from natural gases. It has been declared as a health hazard by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in the USA. There is not much information available about the mercaptans long-term toxicity secondary to occupational exposure. This study was conducted to evaluate the oxidative stress caused by m...
متن کاملSupramolecular functionalization and concomitant enhancement in properties of Au(25) clusters.
We present a versatile approach for tuning the surface functionality of an atomically precise 25 atom gold cluster using specific host-guest interactions between β-cyclodextrin (CD) and the ligand anchored on the cluster. The supramolecular interaction between the Au25 cluster protected by 4-(t-butyl)benzyl mercaptan, labeled Au25SBB18, and CD yielding Au25SBB18∩CDn (n = 1, 2, 3, and 4) has bee...
