Synthesis and reactions of functionalised gold nanoparticles
M. Brust, J. Fink, D. Bethell, D. J. Schiffrin and C. Kiely
Stable functionalised gold nanoparticles are prepared by simultaneous reduction of tetrachloroaurate ions and attachment of bifunctional organic thiol molecules to the growing gold nuclei leading to a material whose chemical behaviour is characterised by the vacant functionality of the bifunctional thiol ligand.
