On the Interactions of Free Radicals with Gold Nanoparticles

Zhang, Zhenyuan, Berg, Alexander, Levanon, Haim, Fessenden, Richard W., Meisel, Dan·2003·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was used to study the interactions between stable free radicals and gold nanoparticles. The nitroxyl free radicals used were TEMPO, TEMPAMINE, and TEMPONE. Two sizes of Au particles, 15 and 2.5 nm in diameter, were synthesized to investigate the interactions with the metallic particles. We find that the EPR signal is reduced upon adsorption of the radicals onto the 15 nm Au particle surface. Despite the strong adsorption of TEMPAMINE on the particles, the signal intensity recovers upon the introduction of a high concentration of ethanolamine to the solution. The signal reduction was proportional to the concentration of Au particles, and the signal totally disappeared at high concentrations of Au particles. Possible explanations of the signal reduction are discussed in this Article. We propose that the reduction in signal intensity arises from exchange interactions between the unpaired electrons of the adsorbed radicals and conduction-band electrons of the metallic particles. In addition, in the presence of oxygen, the adsorbed TEMPAMINE radicals are catalytically oxidized to the carbonyl derivative, TEMPONE. A mechanism for this unexpected catalytic reaction is proposed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
