1-Octadecene is a widely used solvent for high-temperature nanocrystal synthesis (120–320 °C). Here, we show that 1-octadecene spontaneously polymerizes under these conditions, and the resulting poly(1-octadecene) has comparable solubility size to nanocrystals stabilized by hydrophobic ligands. Typical purification procedures (precipitation/redispersion cycles or exclusion chromatography) fail separate impurity from product. To avoid formation of poly(1-octadecene), replace with saturated,...

ZnS nanocrystals (λmax(1Se–1S3/2h) = 260–320 nm, d 1.7–10.0 nm) are synthesized from Zn(O2CR)2 (O2CR tetradecanoate, oleate and 2-hexyldecanoate), N,N′-disubstituted N,N′,N′-trisubstituted thioureas, P,P,N-trisubstituted phosphanecarbothioamides. The influence of precursor substitution, ligand sterics, reaction temperature on the final nanocrystal size was evaluated. Using saturated hydrocarbon solvents aliphatic carboxylate ligands, polymeric byproducts could be avoided pure isolated....

Au nanoparticles (NP) on TiO2 have been shown to be effective catalysts for selective oxidation reactions by using molecular oxygen. In this work, we studied the influence of support morphology catalytic activity Au/TiO2 catalysts. Two anatase supports, a nanoplatelet-shaped material with predominantly {001} facet exposed and truncated bipyramidal-shaped nanoparticle {101} exposed, were prepared nonaqueous solvothermal method characterized DRIFTS, XPS, TEM. deposited supports...

Modern syntheses of colloidal nanocrystals yield extraordinarily narrow size distributions that are believed to result from a rapid "burst nucleation" (La Mer, JACS, 1950, 72(11), 4847-4854) followed by diffusion limited growth and distribution focusing (Reiss, J. Chem. Phys., 1951, 19, 482). Using combination in situ X-ray scattering, optical absorption, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, we monitor the kinetics PbS solute generation, nucleation, crystal three thiourea...
