Well-defined gold nanoclusters with average size less than 2 nm have emerged as a new and novel catalyst. The gold nanocluster loaded on the oxide surface usually aggregates to larger particles at high temperature (>300℃), which is caused by the removal of the surface ligands. We herein present a novel method to prepare Au₂₅ cluster catalyst (~1.3 nm) with high thermal stability (up to 400℃). Au₂₅@SiO₂ is synthesized via a co-hydrolyzing reaction of Au₂₅[SC₃H₆Si(OCH₃)₃]₁₈ and tetraethyl orthosilicate, and then it is treated at different temperature (e.g., 200, 300, 400℃) in air to remove the organic ligands. Au₂₅@SiO₂ is well characterized by transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and diffuse reflectance UV-vis spectroscopy. Further, the Au₂₅@SiO₂ catalysts are investigated in the hydrogenation of p-nitrophenol into p-aminophenol.
