A survey of place-exchange reaction for the preparation of water-soluble gold nanoparticles

Abstract: Water-soluble gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have gained considerable attention because they offer a myriad of potential applications, especially in the fields of biology and medicine. One method to prepare such gold nanoparticles is through the well-known Murray place-exchange reaction. In this method, precursor gold nanoparticles, bearing labile ligands and with very good size distribution, are synthesized first, and then reacted with a large excess of the desired ligand. We report a comparison of the reactivity… Show more

“…The obtained GNPs showed themselves as stable in aqueous media over several weeks and were characterized by means of UV-Vis, ATR-FT-IR, and DLS techniques. The surface plasmon resonance band (SPR) for the GNP solution, as determined by UV-Vis spectroscopy, was located at 522 nm, value in agreement with other literature data [24,[26][27][28]. The concentration of the GNP solution was calculated to be 11.5 nM based on the extinction coefficient at 522 nm [29,30].…”

“…30 An alternative is the synthesis of AuNPs with a more labile intermediate capping agent to facilitate the exchange. The use of AuNP protectants such as citrate, 31 phosphine, 32,33 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP), 34,35 dioctylamine (DOA), 36 and tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOAB) 37 allows us to separate the synthesis of the AuNP core and the formation of a tailored ligand shell via a thiol-for-agent ligand-exchange procedure. 37 While each of the routes described above has been successfully implemented in certain protocols, their general applicability is limited by drawbacks such as (i) the available AuNP size range and size tunability, (ii) the uniformity in size and shape of the AuNP core, (iii) the stability and exchangeability of the intermediate capping agent, (iv) the yield and scalability of the reaction, and (v) the practicality of the procedure.…”

“…This layer can be easily replaced by ligands with a stronger binding affinity, such as for example thiols. 19,20 Thus, in a second step the ligand shell was substituted by a bivalent ligand. Bivalent ligands give access to further functionalization steps at the ligand periphery.…”
