2. A method of stabilizing nanoparticles selected from the group consisting of semiconductor nanoparticles, metal nanoparticles, and metal salt nanoparticles, the method comprising contacting organic dendrons containing single focal point sulfhydryl groups, with colloidal solutions of semiconductor, metal, and metal salt nanoparticles and allowing the single focal point sulfhydryl groups to react with the surfaces of the semiconductor, metal, and metal salt nanoparticles to obtain stabilized, dendronized, semiconductor, metal, and metal salt nanoparticles.
