Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, and post-functionalization of Au nanoparticles that have been surface-modified with glycine–cystamine (Gly-CSA) stabilizing groups. We show that Au monolayer protected clusters (MPCs) can be synthesized via the Brust–Schiffrin method using a Boc-Gly–CSA stabilizer, followed by efficient removal of the Boc protecting group with trifluoroacetic acid. The resulting Gly–CSA Au MPCs are characterized via UV–vis, TEM, and 1H NMR, and are stable in solution over long periods of time. Finally, we show that the Gly–CSA Au MPCs can be further functionalized with nearly stoichiometric yields using activated esters of stearic acid and a Bodipy dye derivative. Thus, this work provides an alternative, general approach for the modification of the surface chemistry of MPCs.Key words: gold nanoparticles, peptide stabilizers, dyes.

Phosphor materials have fascinating applications in the field of photovoltaic and biosensors but low quantum yield is a major hurdle in their applications. In this paper, the influence of surface plasmon on the photoluminescence is investigated with surface modified YAG:Ce3+-Yb3+ coupled with spherical gold nanoparticles. The YAG:Ce3+-Yb3+ photoluminescence band ratio Yb/Ce rise from 0.25 to 0.32 with the plasmon effects. For the photoluminescence, the decay time of Ce reduces from 31.9 ns to 29.9 ns while for Yb from 54.2 ms to 52.0 ms respectively. Further, the plasmon absorption peak is also observed in the spectra of YAG:Ce3+-Yb3+/Au nanoparticles system. The results indicate that the field inside the phosphors has been modulated with surface plasmon of gold nanoparticles.

Dodecyl sulfide, dodecyl amine, and hexylamine were shown to act as surrogate ligands (L) via metastable gold nanoparticles. By collating analytical and spectroscopic data obtained simultaneously, empirical formula Au24L was assigned. These impurity-free nanoparticles obtained in near quantitative yields showing exceptional gold assays (up to 98%Au) were prepared by a modification of the two-phase method. Replacement reactions on the Au24L showed that Au:L ratios may be increased (up to Au55:L (L= (H25C12)2S)) or decreased (Au12:L (L= H2NC12H25and H2NC6H13)) as desired. This work encompassing the role of analytical techniques used, that is, elemental analysis, variable temperature1H NMR, FAB mass spectrometry, UV-Vis spectroscopy, thin film X-ray diffraction, and high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) has implications in the study of size control, purity, stability, and metal assays of gold nanoparticles.

A bioorthogonal gold nanoparticle template displaying interfacial nitrone functional groups for bioorthogonal interfacial strain-promoted alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition (I-SPANC) reactions has been synthesized. The Nitrone-AuNPs were characterized in detail using <sup>1</sup>H NMR spectroscopy, TEM, TGA, and XPS and a nanoparticle raw formula was calculated. The ability to control the conjugation of molecules of interest at the molecular level onto the Nitrone-AuNPs template allowed us to create a methodology for the synthesis of AuNP-based radiolabeled probes with a high degree of loading using copper free, strained-promoted cycloaddition. To this end, we also describe the synthesis of a new prosthetic group containing a strained-alkyne capable of clicking hot <sup>18</sup>F-label onto complementary azide or nitrone labelled agents.

Aquatic pteridophyte (Azolla sp.) was taken to assess its potential to synthesize the metal (Au) nanoparticles. The synthesized particles were characterized using X-ray, UV-visible, scanning and transmission electron microscopy analyses. Nanoparticles almost spherical in shape having the sizes of 5–17[Formula: see text]nm are found. UV-visible study revealed the surface plasmon resonance at 538[Formula: see text]nm. Responsible phytochemicals for the transformation were principally phenolics, tannins, anthraquinone glycosides and sugars present abundantly in the plant thereby bestowing it adaptive prodigality. Also, the use of Azolla sp. for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles offers the benefit of eco-friendliness.
