Abstract

The deposition of gold at the interface between immiscible electrolyte solutions has been investigated using reduction of tetrachloroaurate or tetrabromoaurate in 1,2-dichloroethane, with aqueous phase hexacyanoferrate as reducing agent. In a clean environment without defects present at the interface, the Au(III) complex was reduced to the Au(I) complex, but no solid phase formation could be observed. A deposition process could only be observed through the addition of artificial nucleation sites in the form of palladium nanoparticles at the interface. This process could be associated with the reduction of the Au(I) halide complex to metallic gold, by determining the gold reduction potentials in 1,2-dichloroethane. XANES measurements indicate that tetrachloroaurate ion transfers intact into the organic phase, with the central Au atom retaining its oxidation state of +3 and the overall anion remaining charged at −1.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
