NHC stabilized copper nanoparticles via reduction of a copper NHC complex

The bottom-up synthesis of plasmonic NHC@CuNPs from common starting reagents, via the formation of the synthetically accessible NHC–Cu(i)–Br complex and its reduction by NH(3)·BH(3) is reported. The resulting NHC@CuNPs have been characterized in detail by XPS, TEM and NMR spectroscopy. The stability...

Sumario:The bottom-up synthesis of plasmonic NHC@CuNPs from common starting reagents, via the formation of the synthetically accessible NHC–Cu(i)–Br complex and its reduction by NH(3)·BH(3) is reported. The resulting NHC@CuNPs have been characterized in detail by XPS, TEM and NMR spectroscopy. The stability of NHC@CuNPs was investigated under both inert and ambient conditions using UV-Vis analysis. While the NHC@CuNPs are stable under inert conditions for an extended period of time, the NPs oxidize under air to form Cu(x)O with concomitant release of the stabilizing NHC ligand.
