| Abstract | Functionalized palladium nanoparticles were produced when Pd(II) was reduced in the presence of a variety of molecular capping agents. Silver nanoparticles passivated with a variety of organic species were easily prepared through exhaustive ligand exchange with myristate-capped precursor particles. These precursor nanoparticles may be conveniently prepared in bulk amounts, giving access to a large variety of functionalized nanoparticles that may be difficult to prepare via existing methods.; We have synthesized a number of fluorescent compounds that are derivatized with perfluoroalkyl groups. Both free radical and copper-mediated processes have been employed, as well as a novel and facile technique that introduces a perfluoroalkyl ether at the 9-position of fluorenes. None of these perfluoroalkylated chromophores have been previously reported in the literature. |
