Abstract
Transition metal chalcogenides and pnictides are interesting in optoelectronics and catalysis. We present a generalized method to transform preformed metal oxide nanocrystals into sulfides, selenides, or phosphides via silylative deoxygenation with trimethylsilyl reagents. In all reactions studied, simultaneous decomposition of excess silyl reagent produces a protective, amorphous silica coating around the newly formed nanocrystals.
