摘要

金纳米粒子（AuNPs）的催化活性已得到广泛认可；但在生物系统中，金纳米粒子被认为是高度惰性的辐射敏化剂。这种不同领域的明显差异使人们对其界面反应性的理解变得复杂，尤其是在电子转移反应方面。在这里，我们采用脉冲辐射分析法来确定电子与水溶液中 AuNPs 反应的速率常数。我们对不同尺寸和表面修饰的 AuNPs 进行的研究表明，AuNPs 的设计对电子转移反应具有潜在的影响。这些发现解决了长期存在的机理矛盾，并强调了 AuNPs 上的界面电子动力学在催化和生物过程中的重要意义。

Direct Observation of the Reactivity of Electrons toward Gold Nanoparticles in Aqueous Solution

The catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has been widely acknowledged; however, Au NPs are considered to be highly inert as radiosensitizers in biological systems. This apparent discrepancy across different fields complicates the understanding of their interfacial reactivity, particularly in terms of electron transfer reactions. Here, we employ pulse radiolysis to determine the rate constants for the reactions of electrons with AuNPs in aqueous solution. Our investigation of AuNPs with different sizes and surface modifications demonstrates the potential influence of the AuNPs design on electron transfer reactions. These findings address long-standing mechanistic contradictions and underscore the significance of interfacial electron dynamics on AuNPs in both catalytic and biological processes.
