## Abstract Resorcinarene‐functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were prepared conveniently in aqueous solution in the presence of amphiphilic tetramethoxyresorcinarene tetraaminoamide. The obtained AuNPs were characterized and analyzed by UV‐vis, FT‐IR, XRD and TEM, respectively. The results sh
