Abstract:Spherical gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were selectively synthesized through sonochemical reduction of tetrachloride gold(III) ions (AuCl4]) in an aqueous solution of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate(III) tetrahydrate (HAuCl4·4H2O) with the aid of hydrogen (H2) gas in the absence of any additional capping agents. On the other hand, various shaped-AuNPs such as spherical nanoparticles, triangular and hexagonal plates were formed from sonochemical reduction of AuCl4] in argon (Ar)-, nitrogen (N2)- or oxygen (O2)-purged aqueous AuCl4] solutions. The selective fabrication of spherical AuNPs assisted by H2 gas is most likely attributed to the generation of hydrogen radicals (Hradical dot) promoted by the reaction of H2 introduced and hydrogen oxide radicals (radical dotOH) produced by sonolysis of water.
