Au36(SPh)23 Nanomolecules

A new core size protected completely by an aromatic thiol, Au36(SPh)23, is synthesized and characterized by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and UV–visible spectroscopy. The synthesis involving core size changes is studied by MS, and the complete ligand coverage by aromatic thiol group is shown by NMR.
