    Abstract

    The synthesis of spherical gold nanoparticle assemblies with multicomponent double rosette molecular boxes as mediators is presented. These nine-component hydrogen-bonded supramolecular structures held together by 36 hydrogen bonds induce gold nanoparticle assembly. The morphologies of the nanoparticle assemblies can be tuned easily by changing the quantity of the building block chemisorbed on the nanoparticle surface.
