Correction to “Facile Preparative Route to Alkanethiolate-Coated Au38 Nanoparticles: Postsynthesis Core Size Evolution” Junhyung Kim, Kesta Lema, Macmillan Ukaigwe, and Dongil Lee* Langmuir 2007, 23 (14), 7853−7858. DOI: 10.1021/la700753u Nanoparticles synthesized in a similar manner have been shown, by high resolution mass spectrometry analysis,1 to have the formula Au25(SR)18, where SR is alkanethiolate. We conclude that the nanoparticles prepared in this paper and labeled with the formula cited above, were instead alkanethiolate-coated Au25 nanoparticles.
