✦ Synopsis

HAuCl(4) in aqueous solution was extracted to toluene or chloroform using a hydrophobically modified poly(amidoamine) dendrimer. Then, by reduction of Au(3+) ions with dimethylamineborane, gold nanoparticles in the size range of 2-4 nm were obtained in toluene or chloroform. It is suggested that gold nanoparticles are encapsulated by the dendrimer. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.

## Abstract **Summary:** Amphiphilic poly(__γ__‐glutamic acid) (__γ__‐PGA) was prepared by the introduction of L‐phenylalanine ethylester (L‐PAE) as a side chain. This __γ__‐PGA‐__graft__‐L‐PAE formed monodispersed nanoparticles in water. The particle size of the __γ__‐PGA nanoparticles could be co
