Facile controlled preparation of gold nanoparticles with amphiphilicthiacalix[4]arene as reductant and stabilizer

Abstract

A facile controlled synthesis method of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) under mild conditions has been developed by combining the stabilization ability of amphiphilic thiacalixarene and the reduction ability of phenolic moieties together, and the particle sizes of AuNPs can be readily controlled by only adjusting the feeding ratio of Au/S.
