Liquid‐crystalline dendrons carrying either a thiol or disulfide function which display nematic, smectic A, columnar, or chiral nematic phases have been synthesized. Their mesomorphic properties are in agreement with the nature of the mesogenic units and structure of the dendrons. The first‐generation poly(aryl ester) dendron containing two cyanobiphenyl mesogenic units was used to functionalize gold nanoparticles. For full coverage, a smectic‐like supramolecular organization on the nanometer scale is observed, when the gold nanoparticles are spread onto carbon‐coated copper grids. This result indicates that the dendritic ligands reported here act as self‐organization promoters.  相似文献

The biological synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of various shapes (triangle, hexagonal, and spherical) using hot water olive leaf extracts as reducing agent is reported. The size and the shape of Au nanoparticles are modulated by varying the ratio of metal salt and extract in the reaction medium. Only 20 min were required for the conversion into gold nanoparticles at room temperature, suggesting a reaction rate higher or comparable to those of nanoparticles synthesis by chemical methods. The variation of the pH of the reaction medium gives AuNPs nanoparticles of different shapes. The nanoparticles obtained are characterized by UV–Vis spectroscopy, photoluminescence, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), FTIR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The TEM images showed that a mixture of shapes (triangular, hexagonal and spherical) structures was formed at lower leaf broth concentration and high pH, while smaller spherical shapes were obtained at higher leaf broth concentration and low pH.  相似文献

A simple, inexpensive, single-step synthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles using poly(allylamine) (PAAm) as a reducing and stabilizing agent is reported. The synthetic process was carried out in aqueous solution, making the method versatile and environmentally friendly. The synthesized polymer-stabilized nanoparticles are stable in water without particle aggregation at room temperature for at least a month. We demonstrate successful ligand exchange on the polymer-stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with a variety of omega-functionalized acid-, alcohol-, amine-, and biotin-terminated alkylthiols. The methodologies, including ligand exchange, also are applicable for the generation of finely dispersed silver nanoparticles. The synthesized gold and silver nanoparticles are characterized by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The different ligand-stabilized AuNPs are also analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy.  相似文献

A series of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) stabilized by monodentate, bidentate, and tridentate thiolate calix[n]arene ligands 1 – 3 was prepared by using the Brust–Schiffrin two‐phase direct synthesis and characterized with NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The experimental data show that the particular multidentate structure of calix[n]arene derivatives 2 and 3 introduces a control element in the preparation of the gold nanoparticles that allows, in the particular experimental conditions here reported, to obtain very small (≈1 nm) AuNPs. These are the first experimental findings that identify a role of ligand “denticity” in the determination of the nuclearity of nanoparticles.  相似文献

A novel Prussian blue/copper‐gold bimetallic nanoparticles hybrid film modified electrode was prepared by electrochemical deposition on a glassy carbon electrode (PB/Cu‐AuNPs/GCE). Morphology and electrochemistry of this electrode were studied by UV‐vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The sensor showed significantly better electrocatalytic activity for the reduction of hydrogen peroxide in comparison with the single PB/GCE and PB/AuNPs/GCE. This was attributed to the synergistic effect of PB and Cu‐Au bimetallic nanoparticles. Also, the sensor demonstrated an overall high level of performance for the analysis of H2O2 in the concentration range from 0.002 to 0.84 mM.  相似文献

Spatial and electronic structure of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and AuNPs with thiol base self-assambled monolayers (SAMs) are reviewed. Theoretical and experimental data on the symmetry, bond lengths, band gaps and binding energies are presented. Coordination of sulfur and its compounds to Au structures and AuS bond length emphasized especially. The works on synthesis of thiol based SAMs on AuNPs are reviewed. The applications of EXAFS and photoelectron spectroscopy for the investigated SAMs on AuNPs are considered.  相似文献

Ultrafine monodisperse gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized by an elegant sputtering of gold onto 1- n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMI-PF(6)) ionic liquid. It was found that the BMI-PF(6) supramolecular aggregates were loosely coordinated to the gold nanoparticles and were replaceable with thiol molecules. The self-assembly of BMI-PF(6)-stabilized AuNPs onto a (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPS)-functionalized silicon surface in 2D arrays, followed by dodecanethiol (DDT) treatment, have been demonstrated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and contact angle measurements. DDT treatment of tethered AuNPs revealed two types of interactions between AuNPs and the MPS-functionalized surface: (a) AuNPs anchor through Au-S chemisorption linkage resulting in strong immobilization and (b) some of the AuNPs are supported by physisorption, driven by BMI-PF(6). The attachment of these particles remains unchanged with sonication. The replacement of BMI-PF(6) aggregates from physisorbed AuNPs with DDT molecules advances the dilution of their interaction with the MPS-functionalized surface, and they subsequently detach from the silicon surface. The present finding is promising for the immobilization of ionic liquid-stabilized nanoparticles, which is very desirable for electronic and catalytic device fabrication. Additionally, these environmentally friendly AuNPs are expected to replace conventional citrate-stabilized AuNPs.  相似文献

A simple and green approach for the synthesis of well‐stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using gum Acacia (GA) is presented here. The gum acacia acts as the reductant and stabilizer. The synthesized gold nanoparticles were characterized by using ultraviolet visible (UV‐Vis), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), x‐ray diffraction (XRD), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. The UV‐Vis study revealed a distinct surface plasmon resonance at 520 – 550 nm, due to the formation of AuNPs. FTIR analysis showed the evidence that –OH groups present in the gum matrix were responsible in reducing the tetra chloroauric acid into AuNPs. XRD studies confirmed the formation of well crystalline nanoparticles with fcc structure and the particle size ranges from 4 – 29 nm, as indicated by TEM analysis. The synthesized gold nanoparticles exhibited homogeneous catalytic activity. The two model reactions studied were the reduction of p‐nitro phenol and the reduction of hexacyanoferrate (III) by borohydride ions. Both the reactions were monitored by UV‐Vis spectroscopy. The kinetic investigations were carried out for the AuNPs‐catalyzed reactions at different temperatures and different amount of catalyst.  相似文献

The purpose of this work is to study the self-assembling of some synthesized thiol surfactants namely (mercaptopropane-, mercaptohexane-, mercaptooctane-, and mercaptodecane sodium sulfonate) on the fabricated gold nanoparticles. The self-assembling of these surfactants on gold nanoparticles characterized using different techniques such as FTIR spectroscopy, UV spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Spectroscopic evidence suggests that the synthesized thiol surfactants have been attached to the gold nanoparticles. The effect of self-assembling of these surfactants on the size of the gold nanoparticles was studied using TEM images. The growth of the gold nanoparticles was investigated with respect to the increase of alkyl chain in the synthesized thiol surfactants. The results show that the stabilization of gold nanoparticles was affected by the increase in alkyl chain length of these surfactants. The effect of gold nanoparticles on the interfacial tension and the emulsion stability of these surfactants with crude oil was studied.  相似文献

A new prototype of reversible self‐assembly between functionalized gold and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (NPs) utilizing hydrogen bonding interactions was developed and established. The gold nanoparticles were functionalized with a Hamilton‐receptor functionality bearing a thiol moiety as anchoring group. The titanium dioxide nanoparticles were modified with cyanurate derivatives which contained phosphonic acids as anchoring groups. The host–guest type interaction between two functionalized nanoparticles yielded a highly integrated nanoparticle system in chloroform. Moreover, by presenting a competing ligand in an exchange reaction, the product of self‐assembly can be segregated into the individual soluble components of functionalized nanoparticles. The self‐assembly and the exchange reaction were followed and monitored in detail by UV/Vis spectroscopy. The structure of the self‐assembly product was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS).  相似文献

The behavior of electrons within the metallic core of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) can be controlled by the nature of the surface chemistry of the AuNPs. Specifically, the conduction electron spin resonance (CESR) spectra of AuNPs of diameter 1.8–1.9 nm are sensitive to ligand exchange of hexanethiol for 4‐bromothiophenol on the surface of the nanoparticle. Chemisorption of the aromatic ligand leads to a shift in the metallic electron’s g‐factor toward the value expected for pure gold systems, suggesting an increase in metallic character for the electrons within the gold core. Analysis by UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy reveals a concomitant bathochromic shift of the surface plasmon resonance band of the AuNP, indicating that other electronic properties of AuNPs are also affected by the ligand exchange. In total, our results demonstrate that the chemical nature of the ligand controls the valence band structure of AuNPs.  相似文献

Materials with Janus structures are attractive for wide applications in materials science. Although extensive efforts in the synthesis of Janus particles have been reported, the synthesis of sub‐10 nm Janus nanoparticles is still challenging. Herein, the synthesis of Janus gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) based on interface‐directed self‐assembly is reported. Polystyrene (PS) colloidal particles with AuNPs on the surface were prepared by interface‐directed self‐assembly, and the colloidal particles were used as templates for the synthesis of Janus AuNPs. To prepare colloidal particles, thiol‐terminated polystyrene (PS‐SH) was dissolved in toluene and citrate‐stabilized AuNPs were dispersed in aqueous solution. Upon mixing the two solutions, PS‐SH chains were grafted to the surface of AuNPs and amphiphilic AuNPs were formed at the liquid–liquid interface. PS colloidal particles decorated with AuNPs on the surfaces were prepared by adding the emulsion to excess methanol. On the surface, AuNPs were partially embedded in the colloidal particles. The outer regions of the AuNPs were exposed to the solution and were functionalized through the grafting of atom‐transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiator. Poly[2‐(dimethamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDMAEMA) on AuNPs were prepared by surface‐initiated ATRP. After centrifugation and dissolving the colloidal particles in tetrahydrofuran (THF), Janus AuNPs with PS and PDMAEMA on two hemispheres were obtained. In acidic pH, Janus AuNPs are amphiphilic and are able to emulsify oil droplets in water; in basic pH, the Janus AuNPs are hydrophobic. In mixtures of THF/methanol at a volume ratio of 1:5, the Janus AuNPs self‐assemble into bilayer structures with collapsed PS in the interiors and solvated PDMAEMA at the exteriors of the structures.  相似文献

Binding DNA on nanoparticles was pursued to form nanoplatform for formation of non‐viral gene system. Carboxyl derivatized gold‐aryl nanoparticles can bind with biodegradable cationic polyelectrolytes such as polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDADMAC). In our study, we used gold‐aryl nanoparticles (AuNPs) treated with PDADMAC to form conjugates with non‐thiol or non‐disulfide modified oligonucleotide DNA. Both AuNPs‐DNA and PDADMAC‐AuNPs‐DNA biomaterials were characterized using UV–Vis, dynamic light scattering (DLS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and agarose gel electrophoresis. UV–Vis showed a red shift in the plasmon peak as compared with unconjugated AuNPs. DLS measurements also showed difference in the size of AuNPs‐DNA and PDADMAC‐AuNPs‐DNA. AFM and TEM results showed proper conjugation of DNA with AuNPs. Gel electrophoresis proved the presence of interaction between PDADMAC‐AuNPs and negatively charged DNA. The binding of DNA in the described bioconjugate enhanced its protection against nuclease degradation and prolonged its presence in the digestive environment of DNase‐I. From the results we expect that these biomaterials can be used in nanomedicine with emphasis on non‐viral gene system.  相似文献

In the past few years three topics in nanoscience have received great attention: catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), their electron transfer properties, and magnetism. Although these properties could have much in common no report on their synergism has been published. Here we present 10-nm gold nanoparticles conveniently capped with a mixed self-assembled monolayer containing bis(dithiocarbamato)copper(II) complexes, which dismutate superoxide radical with extremely high efficiency (IC(50) = 0.074 μM). This behavior is interpreted as the result of an electron transfer (ET) process between AuNP core and the analyte when associated to copper(II). The ET process involving a charged AuNP core was detected by EPR and UV-vis spectroscopy.  相似文献

A series of molecular adsorbates having various chain lengths of terminal poly(ethylene glycol methyl ether) (PEG) moieties, thiol head groups, and intervening free radical initiator moieties was used to functionalize the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The bulky PEG groups stabilized the functionalized AuNPs by providing steric hindrance against AuNP aggregation, such aggregation being a major problem in the modification and manipulation of metal nanoparticles. UV–vis spectroscopy was used to evaluate the stability of the adsorbate-functionalized AuNPs as a function of AuNP size (~15, 40, and 90 nm in diameter) and PEG chain length (Mn 350, 750, and 2,000). The longer PEG chains (Mn 750 and 2,000) afforded stability to AuNPs with smaller gold cores (~15 and 40 nm in diameter) for up to several days without any marked aggregation. In contrast, the adsorbate-functionalized AuNPs with the largest gold cores (~90 nm) were noticeably less stable than those with the smaller gold cores. Importantly, the adsorbate-functionalized AuNPs could be isolated in solvent-free “dried” form and readily dispersed in aqueous buffer solution (both acidic and basic) and various organic solvents (protic and aprotic). This isolation–redispersion (i.e., aggregation/deaggregation) process was completely reversible. The chemisorption of the PEG-terminated initiator on the surface of the AuNPs was verified by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). As a whole, the strategy reported here affords colloidally stable, free radical initiator-functionalized AuNPs and offers a promising general method for encapsulating metal nanoparticles within polymer shells.

Neatly arranged gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were directly electrodeposited on an electrochemically polymerized self‐assembled monolayer (SAM) of thiol‐functionalized 3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) derivative, EDTMSHA. A thiolated single‐stranded DNA (ssDNA) aptamer with high specificity to LPS was immobilized on the AuNPs/conducting polymer composite film, serving as sensing platform for LPS detection. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were utilized to characterize the modification and detection processes. The electron transfer resistance was found to have a linear relationship with LPS concentration from 0.1 pg/mL to 1 ng/mL.  相似文献

This work is focused on the synthesis of innovative hybrids made by linking gold nanoparticles to protected organometallic Pd(II) thiolate. The organometallic protected Pd(II) thiolate, i.e. trans-thioacetate-ethynylphenyl-bis(tributylphosphine)palladium(II) has been synthesized, in situ deprotected and linked to Au nanoparticles. In this way new hybrid, with a direct link between Pd(II) and Au nanoparticles through a single S bridge, has been isolated. The combination of the organometallic Pd(II) thiol with gold nanoparticles allows the enhancement and tailoring of electronic and optical properties of the new organic-inorganic nano-compound. Single-crystal gold nanoparticles, uniform in shape and size were obtained by applying a modified two-phase method (improved Brust-Schiffrin reaction). In addition, the chemical environment of the Au nanoparticles was investigated and a covalent bonding between Au nanoparticles and the organometallic thiols was observed.  相似文献

Oxygenation of phenylboronic acid to phenol is promoted by thiol derivatives such as 2-aminothiophenol under aerobic conditions in water without metal catalyst. A plausible mechanism involves autoxidation of thiol to generate hydrogen peroxide in situ, which converts phenylboronic acid into phenol under basic conditions. Since thiols are often utilized as protective ligands for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), this result is a warning that excess thiols and free thiols liberated from the Au surface could participate in aerobic oxidations catalyzed by thiol-protected AuNPs.  相似文献

A template synthesis allows the preparation of monodisperse nanoparticles with high reproducibility and independent from self‐assembly requirements. Tailor‐made polymer cages were used for the preparation of nanoparticles, which were made of cross‐linked macromolecules with pendant thiol groups. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were prepared in the polymer cages in situ, by using different amounts of cages versus gold. The polymer cages exhibited a certain capacity, below which the AuNPs could be grown with excellent control over the size and shape. Control experiments with a linear diblock copolymer showed a continuous increase in the AuNP size as the gold feed increased. This completely different behavior regarding the AuNP size evolution was attributed to the flexibility of the polymer chain depending on cross‐linking. Moreover, the polymer cages were suitable for the encapsulation of AgNPs, PdNPs, and PtNPs by the in situ method.  相似文献

The synthesis and characterization of two new carbosilane dendrons functionalized in the focal point with a single thiol group is described. These molecules were used as stabilizing agents for the formation of gold nanoparticles. These materials were obtained by the reduction of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate phase-transferred into toluene in the presence of the carbosilane dendrons. The gold nanoparticle-cored dendrons (NCDs) were characterized by TEM, XPS, AFM, IR, UV, and NMR techniques. Average particle diameter ranged from 2.5 to 2.6 nm with narrow size distribution and remarkable stability; in particular, the elimination of the protecting shells to give naked gold, after NCDs deposition on a support, is more difficult using carbosilane dendrons than in the case of conventional dodecanethiol-protected gold nanoparticles.  相似文献
