Easy and Fast Phase Transfer of CTAB Stabilised Gold Nanoparticles from Water to Organic Phase

Kittler, S., Hickey, Stephen G., Wolff, T., Eychmüller, A. 12 August 2014 (has links)
No / Spheric and anisotropic gold nanoparticles (GNPs) such as rods, stars or nanoprism prepared using hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as the stabilising agent have received a great deal of interest in the last years. The literature procedures exploited lead to GNPs in aqueous solution. We herein describe a fast, efficient, and cheap method to transfer particles of different shapes from water into toluene solution via ligand exchange (CTAB to dodecanethiol), which was mediated by acetone as a cosolvent. Absorption spectra and TEM-pictures before and after the transfer revealed that the particles survived the transfer intact and without change in shape.
