Abstract

Research was conducted to examine the electrolysis of Au(sub 145)(SC6)sub 50 monolayer-protected clusters (MPCs), wherein the cores throughout the solution have known quanta of double layer charge, as well as the application of the electronic charges in stoichiometrically quantified chemical reactions. Results indicate that electronic charges associated with double layer charges of MPCs can serve as a controllable and quantifiable way to drive electron transfer reactions.
