Abstract
AgReO4 nanoplates and micron‐sized AgReO4 rods and stars are obtained for the first time from controlled particle growth in THF. [NBu4][ReO4] or [NMe4][ReO4] and Ag(OTf) (OTf: triflate) are used as the starting materials. The crystal growth is directed by the presence (i.e., plates) or absence (i.e., rods, stars) of trioctylphosphine (TOP) as a coordinating agent as well as by the temperature of the reaction (i.e., plates, rods in refluxing THF; stars at room temperature). Altogether, the growth of the respective morphology can be attributed to the availability and diffusion rate of dissolved Ag+ that is influenced by the reaction temperature and the presence of TOP. The differently shaped AgReO4 particles are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray diffraction analysis (XRD), and Fourier‐transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy.
