Ionic cellulose-stabilized gold nanoparticles and their application in the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol

A novel strategy for the synthesis of highly stable gold nanoparticles (GNPs) was designed by reducing HAuCl(4) with NaBH(4) in an aqueous solution of water-soluble ionic cellulose composed of dimethylimidazolium cations and phosphite-bound cellulose anions. NMR and UV-Vis analysis along with the me...

Sumario:A novel strategy for the synthesis of highly stable gold nanoparticles (GNPs) was designed by reducing HAuCl(4) with NaBH(4) in an aqueous solution of water-soluble ionic cellulose composed of dimethylimidazolium cations and phosphite-bound cellulose anions. NMR and UV-Vis analysis along with the measurement of the zeta potential suggest that the exceptionally high stability of GNPs originates from the strong interaction of GNPs with the phosphite groups of the ionic cellulose. The thus prepared GNPs exhibit excellent catalytic activity for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol, a model hydrogenation reaction.
