| Résumé: | © 2011 American Chemical Society We report a facile method to synthesize water-soluble gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using a biosurfactant sodium cholate as reducing reagents and protective groups in aqueous solution at ambient temperature. The diameters (13-70 nm) of uniform AuNPs can be readily adjusted by changing the initial molar ratio of sodium cholate to chloroauric acid (HAuCl(4)). Also, the alkaline condition of preparative solution is found to affect the size of as-synthesized AuNPs. This synthetic approach is one-step and "green". The obtained AuNPs exhibit a good electrocatalytic activity toward methanol oxidation. Meanwhile, the AuNPs thin films can serve as an efficient substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Furthermore, platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) are also prepared by reducing sodium tetrachloro platinate hydrate with sodium cholate |
