Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles Using Schiff Base

The Schiff base is used for the first time in the preparation of gold nanoparticles by the interaction of tris (triphenylphosphinegold)oxonium tetrafioroborate in acetonitrile medium. The gold nanostructures were characterized using UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The scanning electron microscopy allowed the examination of the morphology of the gold nanostructured film obtained by chemical deposition retains properties of individual particles and remain separated without undergoing aggregation.
