Synthesis of multi-podal CdS nanostructures using heterocyclic dithiocarbamato complexes as precursors

Hot‐Injection Synthesis of PbE (E= S, Se) Nanoparticles from Dichalcogenoimidophosphinato Lead (II) Complexes

“…This is accomplished in major stages which include nucleation and growth as reported in the LaMer model . The primary role of the oleylamine was to provide a capping effect and hence prevent agglomeration of the nanoparticles …”

Bis(piperidinedithiocarbamato)pyridinecadmium(ii) as a single-source precursor for the synthesis of CdS nanoparticles and aerosol-assisted chemical vapour deposition (AACVD) of CdS thin films

“…Recently our group has reported the use of heterocyclic dithiocarbamate complexes of cadmium for shape controlled CdS nanostructures. [9][10][11] Four-coordinate complexes of cadmium are known to expand their coordination number by adding neutral nitrogen-containing ligands such as pyridine, bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline. 12,13 Indeed, the physical properties and single crystal X-ray structural studies on numerous cadmium and zinc complexes comprising dithiocarbamate and aromatic nitrogen-containing chelating ligands such as pyridine, 2,2 0 -bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline have been reported.…”

Heterocyclic Bismuth(III) Dithiocarbamato Complexes as Single‐Source Precursors for the Synthesis of Anisotropic Bi2S3 Nanoparticles

“…[16b] The mechanism of the preferential growth of Bi 2 S 3 nanorods with variationof reactionp arameters has been studied in some detail.M any studies have concluded that the type of solvent used, for example, ethylene glycol,d iethylene glycol or thioglycolic acid, favoured the formation of Bi 2 S 3 nanorods. [19][20][21][22][23][24][25] These dithiocarbamate complexes containing bulky alkyl groups have been particularly effective in producing high-quality CdS, ZnS and PbS nanomaterials. The addition of as malla mount of dodecanethiol or octadecanethiol resulted in the formation of Bi 2 S 3 nanorods up to several nanometres in length, with better crystallinity.…”

“…[18] Recently,w eh ave reported the use of heterocyclic dithiocarbamatesa sS SPs for the preparation of nanocrystalline materials. [19][20][21][22][23][24][25] These dithiocarbamate complexes containing bulky alkyl groups have been particularly effective in producing high-quality CdS, ZnS and PbS nanomaterials. [19,21,22] Herein we describe the synthesis of Bi 2 S 3 nanorods at differentt emperatures and with different capping agents from newly synthesised complexes catena-(m 2 -nitrato-O,O')bis(piperidinedithiocarbamato)bismuth(III) (1)a nd the tetranuclear cluster tetrakis(mnitrato)tetrakis[bis(tetrahydroquinolinedithiocarbamato)bismuth(III)] (2).…”
