Gold(I) precursor for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles.
Gold nanoparticles can be synthesized starting from gold(I) precursors using non-toxic materials (reducing agents, stabilizers and growth enhancers) for the stabilization in aqueous media. Thus, they can be used in pharmaceutical and biological applications.
