Carbon nanotube anions for the preparation of gold nanoparticle–nanocarbon hybrids

Abstract

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) can be evenly deposited on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) via the reduction of the highly stable complex, chloro(triphenylphosphine) gold(I), with SWCNT anions (‘nanotubides’). This methodology highlights the unusual chemistry of nanotubides and provides a blueprint for the generation of many other hybrid nanomaterials.
