Plasmon-driven chemical transformation of a secondary amide | ResearchBunny

Index

Abstract

This study investigates the reactivity of N-methyl-4-sulfanylbenzamide (NMSB), a secondary amide, at gold and silver nanoparticle aggregates under plasmonic excitation. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is used to initiate and monitor the molecular transformation. The results suggest a hot electron-mediated conversion of NMSB to p-mercaptobenzamide and p-mercaptobenzonitrile, with negligible temperature dependence, indicating a non-thermal reaction pathway.
