โฆ Synopsis
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-capped silver nanoparticles were used as the catalyst for the oxidative coupling of n-dodecanethiol. The product was characterized to be n-dodecyl disulfide by mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The effects of reaction time, temperature, catalyst concentration, and water amount on catalyst performance were examined. The optimum reaction conditions were 0.157 mmol PVP-capped silver nanoparticles, 20 l distilled water, reaction temperature of 100 o C, and reaction time of 3 h. The PVP-capped silver nanoparticles were also used as the catalyst for the oxidative coupling of n-butanethiol and n-octanethiol to their corresponding disulfides.
