Abstract:Incorporation of directing amide groups has been shown
to facilitate
the topochemical polymerization of 1,3-butadiyne (diacetylene) groups
in noncrystalline phases such as gels, amorphous solids, and liquid
crystals. It remains challenging to polymerize 1,3-butadiyne-containing
alkylthiolate ligands within their self-assembled monolayers on gold
nanoparticles (AuNPs), which enhances their stability and adds new
optical and electronic properties. Especially smaller AuNPs of sizes
below 5 nm in diameter have bee… Show more
