Abstract

Alkylthiol molecules, C₂₂H₄₅-SO₂-C₆H₄-O-C₄H₈-SH, HS-(CH₂)₂₁-OH and HS-(CH₂)₁₀-COOH, were used to stabilize gold clusters, formed in a two-phase system. The gold nanoparticles were investigated by using transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results show that surfactant-coated nanoparticles are indeed formed and the incorporation of a dipole or a terminal functionality into the surfactant does not hinder the self-assembling process.
