Abstract

A new procedure for the modification of gold nanospheres (2−7 nm diameter) with thiolated cyclodextrin receptors is described. The resulting monolayer-protected nanoparticles behave as multisite hosts in aqueous media, engaging in host−guest interactions with guest molecules in the solution.
