Low Interfacial Tension

Citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles were found to spontaneously self-assemble into a lustrous film at a bare water–propylene carbonate interface after vigorous shaking, due to the extremely low interfacial tension. The presence of the electron donor, tetrathiafulvalene, in the oil phase, led to the extraction of particles into the organic phase.

ABSTRACTBio-conjugated nanomaterials play a promising role in the development of novelsupramolecular structures, molecular machines, and biosensing devices. In this study, lipid-capped gold nanoparticles were synthesized and allowed to form a self-assembled monolayer structure. The nanoparticles were prepared by a phase transfer method, which involved the reduction of potassium tetrachloroaurate(III) by sodium citrate in an aqueous solution and the simultaneous transfer of the reduced species to an organic medium containing DMPC (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine). The gold nanoparticles were characterized using Uv-vis spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering (DLS) particle-size analysis. In addition, the resulting nanoparticles were examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique was used to assemble the DMPC-capped nanoparticles onto a water subphase at room temperature. The measurement of the compression isotherm confirmed the assemblage of lipid capped gold nanoparticles. This method of synthesis of ordered structures utilizing molecular interactions of lipids will be useful in developing novel metamaterials and nanocircuits.

AbstractThiol-coated gold nanoparticles with a diameter of approximately 7.5 nanometers and a narrow particle distribution were prepared from sodium tetrachloroaurate under phase transfer conditions. The thiols used were 1-mercaptododecane (1) and 1-mercapto-9,11-heptadecadiyne (4). The particles were cast onto thin films of polyaniline and poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), as well as onto thiol-coated versions of the same polymer. Surface modification of the polymers with long chain thiols encourages the spontaneous self-assembly of the particles into twodimensional arrays and may offer a unique method for stabilization of nanoparticle assemblies on polymer substrates.

Citrate-stabilized gold and platinum particles were prepared in aqueous phase and transferred to toluene phase by employing 2-propanol as the transfer agent. It was found that the modified natural rubber (ENR) induced the phase transfer and assisted the dispersion of the citrate-free metal particles into the organic phase. The amounts of gold and platinum transferred are 93.4% and 86.1%, respectively. This phase transfer technique produced organosols of smaller particle sizes and narrower size distribution with self-assembly arrangements when compared to those prepared via the previous in situ preparations. The respective average particle size and standard deviation of gold before and after phase transfer were6.3±1.7 nm and7.2±1.3 nm, while for platinum they were4.0±0.7 nm and4.2±0.8 nm. The slight increase in the average sizes and overall size distributions in both metals after transfer was attributed to multiparticle aggregation in the organic phase.

Here we describe the synthesis and electrochemical testing of a heteroleptic bis(tridentate) ruthenium(II) complex [Ru<sup>II</sup>(LR)(L)]<sup>0</sup> (LR =2,6-bis(1-(2-octyldodecan)benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine, L = 2,6-bis(benzimidazolate)pyridine). It is a neutral complex which undergoes a quasireversible oxidation and reduction at relatively low potential. The newly synthetized compound was used for studies of ion-transfer at the three-phase junction because of the sensitivity of this method to cation expulsion. The [Ru<sup>II</sup>(LR)(L)]<sup>0</sup> shows exceptional stability during cycling and is sufficiently lipophilic even after oxidation to persist in the organic phase also using very hydrophilic anions such as Cl<sup>−</sup>. Given its low redox potential and strong lipophilicity this compound will be of interest as an electron donor in liquid-liquid electrochemistry.
