Driving oxygen coordinated ligand exchange at nanocrystal surfaces using trialkylsilylated chalcogenides.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A general, efficient method is demonstrated for exchanging native oxyanionic ligands on inorganic nanocrystals with functional trimethylsilylated (TMS) chalcogenido ligands. In addition, newly synthesized TMS mixed chalcogenides leverage preferential reactivity of TMS-S bonds over TMS-O bonds, enabling efficient transfer of luminescent nanocrystals into aqueous media with retention of their optical properties.

Exceptionally mild reactive stripping of native ligands from nanocrystal surfaces by using Meerwein's salt.
Native coordinating ligands acquired during the chemical synthesis of colloidal nanocrystals are optimized primarily for their ability to exert control over nanocrystal size, composition, morphology, and dispersibility, and not necessarily for their final application. In general, they are hydrophobic and highly insulating, and constitute a significant barrier for charge or ion transport in devi...
متن کاملMonitoring Self-Assembly and Ligand Exchange of PbS Nanocrystal Superlattices at the Liquid/Air Interface in Real Time.
We investigate in situ the structural changes during self-assembly of PbS nanocrystals from colloidal solution into superlattices, solvent evaporation, and ligand exchange at the acetonitrile/air interface by grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS). We simulate and fit the diffraction peaks under the distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA) to determine the lattice parameters. W...
متن کاملIn-Situ Microfluidic Study of Biphasic Nanocrystal Ligand-Exchange Reactions Using an Oscillatory Flow Reactor.
Oscillatory flow reactors provide a surface energy-driven approach for automatically screening reaction conditions and studying reaction mechanisms of biphasic nanocrystal ligand-exchange reactions. Sulfide and cysteine ligand-exchange reactions with as-synthesized CdSe quantum dots (QDs) are chosen as two model reactions. Different reaction variables including the new-ligand-to-QD ratio, the s...
متن کاملNanocrystal ligand exchange with 1,2,3,4-thiatriazole-5-thiolate and its facile in situ conversion to thiocyanate.
The 1,2,3,4-thiatriazole-5-thiolate anion (TTT(-)) was found to be a strongly binding ligand for CdSe nanocrystals, quantitatively exchanging various long-chain ligands to yield stable colloidal suspensions in common polar solvents. The TTT(-) ligand thermolyzes at <100 °C to produce thiocyanate in situ, resulting in reduced quantum confinement in nanocrystal films. CdSe(TTT) possesses far high...
متن کاملLigand exchange in quaternary alloyed nanocrystals--a spectroscopic study.
Exchange of initial, predominantly stearate ligands for pyridine in the first step and butylamine (BA) or 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) in the second one was studied for alloyed quaternary Cu-In-Zn-S nanocrystals. The NMR results enabled us to demonstrate, for the first time, direct binding of the pyridine labile ligand to the nanocrystal surface as evidenced by paramagnetic shifts of the th...
