TEMPO-Functionalized Nanoporous Au Nanocomposite for the Electrochemical Detection of H2O2 by Dongxiao Wen, Qianrui Liu, Ying Cui, Huaixia Yang, Jinming Kong

“…A novel nanocomposite of nanoporous gold nanoparticles (np-AuNPs) functionalized with 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy radical (TEMPO) was prepared; assembled carboxyl groups on gold nanoporous nanoparticles surface were combined with TEMPO by the “bridge” of carboxylate-zirconium-carboxylate chemistry. SEM images and UV-Vis spectroscopies of np-AuNPs indicated that a safe, sustainable, and simplified one-step dealloying synthesis approach is successful. …”
