Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a hybrid nanoparticle comprising a metallic core and at least one lipophilic dendron attached to the surface of the metallic core, and methods of producing such hybrid nanoparticles. The present disclosure also relates to films containing the hybrid nanoparticles described herein.
Claims19
A hybrid nanoparticle comprising:
- (a) a metallic core, and
- (b) at least one dendron attached to the surface of the metallic core;
- wherein the at least one dendron is a lipophilic dendron, wherein the lipophilic dendron comprises one or more capping groups comprising an alkyl group having at least 6 carbon atoms.
A dendrimer represented by the structure of formula (III) or (IV):
- wherein
- each occurrence of R1 is H or C1-C20 alkyl,
- each occurrence of D1 and D2 are each, independently, C1-C20 alkylene,
- each occurrence of L1 is C1-C20 alkylene,
- each occurrence R2 and R3 are each, independently, C1-C38 alkyl, C2-C38 alkenyl, or C2-C38 alkynyl,
- n is from 1 to 6;
- wherein R1, D1, and D2, L1, R2, and R3, are each optionally interrupted by one or more divalent moieties defined herein.
