Abstract
AbstractMo0, W0, Fe0, Ru0, Re0, and Zn0 nanoparticles—essentially base metals—are prepared as a general strategy by a sodium naphthalenide ([NaNaph])‐driven reduction of simple metal chlorides in ethers (1,2‐dimethoxyethane (DME), tetrahydrofuran (THF)). All the nanoparticles have diameters ≤10 nm, and they can be obtained either as powder samples or long‐term stable suspensions. Direct follow‐up reactions (e.g., Mo0+S8, FeCl3+AsCl3, ReCl5+MoCl5), moreover, allow the preparation of MoS2, FeAs2, or Re4Mo nanoparticles of similar size as the pristine metals (≤10 nm).
