One-step synthesis and stabilization of gold nanoparticles in water with the simple oxothiometalate Na2[Mo33-S)(μ-S)3(Hnta)3]

Abstract

Na2[Mo33-S)(μ-S)3(Hnta)3] serves both as a reducing and a capping agent in the synthesis of Au nanoparticles in water at room temperature in a “fully green chemistry-type process”, thus avoiding the usual two-step preparation of thiolate-monolayer-coated gold nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were characterized by TEM, DLS, UV-vis spectroscopy, XPS and XRD analyses and cyclic voltammetry.
