Abstract

AbstractOn the occasion to celebrate 130 years of ZAAC, we summarize about 20 years of our journey through inorganic chemistry with “large” solids (single‐crystalline compounds) and “small” solids (nanomaterials). This includes the syntheses (water, polyols, ethers, liquid ammonia, ionic liquids) and structures (crystal structure and nanostructure) as well as the respective properties (especially bonding and stability, luminescence, catalysis and photocatalysis, imaging and drug delivery). Specific examples of large and small solids comprise metal‐oxide nanoparticles, base‐metal nanoparticles, hollow nanospheres, polyhalides and halogen‐rich metal halides, carbonyl and cluster compounds, as well as inorganic‐organic hybrid nanoparticles.
