Correction to “Mechanistic Insights into the Formation of Dodecanethiolate-Stabilized Magnetic Iridium Nanoparticles: Thiosulfate vs Thiol Ligands”

The correct graphic (¹H NMR spectra) for Figure 2 in the paper was replaced by the graphic of solutions, which was also, and should remain, Figure 1. The correct Figures 1 and 2, along with their corresponding captions, are shown below. We apologize for any potential confusion with regard to this misplacement and omission of figures.

Figure 2.

¹H NMR spectra of (a) [R₄N⁺]₂[IrX₆^2–] in toluene-d₈ obtained after mixing the organic (toluene-d₈) layer of TOAB (2.0 mmol) and the aqueous (D₂O) layer of K₂IrCl₆ (0.4 mmol), (b) 1-dodecanthiol (0.8 mmol) added to a, (c) 1-dodecanthiol (1.6 mmol) added to a, (d) NaBH₄ (4.0 mmol) added to c, (e) S-dodecylthiosulfate (0.8 mmol) added to a, and (f) Ir nanoparticle in CDCl₃ after purification. The multiplet resonance at δ 2.09 ppm is due to the presence of the toluene solvent impurity.

Figure 1.

Picture of solutions containing (a) K₂IrCl_6(aq) (0.4 mmol), (b) [R₄N⁺]₂[IrCl₆^2–]_(toluene), (c) 1-dodecanthiol (0.8 mmol) added to b, (d) NaBH₄ (4.0 mmol) added to c, and (e) S-dodecylthiosulfate (0.8 mmol) and NaBH₄ (4.0 mmol) added to b.
