Synthesis of gold nanoparticles stabilized by a pyrazinium thioacetate ligand: A new colorimetric nanosensor for detection of heavy metal Pd(II)

We developed a facile method for the synthesis of Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) stabilized by cationic 1-(3-(acetylthio)propyl)pyrazin-1-ium ligand denoted as APP. Gold nanoparticles stabilized by APP (APP-AuNPs) are found to be polydispersed in size and lie in the range of 5–10 nm. We report a robust...
