Salt-Mediated Self-Assembly of Thioctic Acid on Gold Nanoparticles

Abstract: Self-assembled monolayer (SAM) modification is a widely used method to improve the functionality and stability of bulk and nanoscale materials. For instance, the chemical compatibility and utility of solution-phase nanoparticles are often improved using covalently bound SAMs. Herein, solution-phase gold nanoparticles are modified with thioctic acid SAMs in the presence and absence of salt. Molecular packing density on the nanoparticle surfaces is estimated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and increases b… Show more

“…The gold nanoparticles capped and stabilized with thiol-derivative monolayers are dispersed in organic solvents [7,10]. Since then enormous researches have been performed on modifying the surface of gold colloids through changing the molecular structures of the thiolates on the particle surface [11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. The protection capping agent (thiols) is chemically bound to the surface of gold nanoparticles [7].…”

“…Under low ionic strength conditions, the monolayer of our NP scaffolds should acquire a lower compaction degree. 20,21 All NPs scaffolds displayed increased substrate adsorption capacity in deionized water than PBS (see ESI-4). These results suggest that the more expanded the monolayer of our NPs the greater their capacity to associate substrates (see ESI-5).…”

It has been suggested that, for lipoic acid itself, it relates to an ionically bound or hydrogen bonded ad?layer on top of the lipoic acid SAM.…”
