Abstract
Stable functionalised gold nanoparticles are prepared by simultaneous reduction of tetrachloroaurate ions and attachment of bifunctional org anic 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.
