Abstract

Silver nanoparticles stabilized by the water soluble triosmium cluster Os3(μ-H)(CO)10S(CH2)10COO]Na were prepared by both photochemical and chemical reduction of silver nitrate. The silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy and high resolution TEM. The particles obtained by chemical reduction showed remarkable stability.
