摘要: Nano-sized early transition metal carbides, including TiC, ZrC, HfC, V4C3, NbC and TaC, were synthesized from colloidal precursors generated by reducing the metal chlorides, TiCl4, ZrCl4, HfCl4, VCl3, NbCl5, and TaCl5, respectively, with n-C4H9Li in hexane. The colloids were formed from the reduction of the metal centers, which then nucleated into nano-scaled metal clusters. The major byproducts were LiCl, C4H10, and C4H8, indicating that the butyl groups probably underwent beta-hydrogen elimination and reductive elimination. This suggests that C-C bond activation of the butyl groups was in operation, leaving residual carbon atoms in the metal colloids. The colloids were further heated at 873-1273 K to crystallize into cubic phase TIC, ZrC, HfC, V4C3, NbC and TaC nanoparticles.
