In the early 1990s, the seminal work by B. Chaudret and J. S. Bradley led to the establishment
of metal nanoparticles (NPs) synthesis from organometallic precursors. Since then, this
methodolo-gy has attracted the attention of many research groups, ours included, and offered
possibilities to selectively control the shape and size of these nano-objects under mild reaction
conditions. Clever design of substrate and stabilizing ligand systems has allowed the synthesis
of late transition metal and their oxide NPs (group 8-12) from precious metal (Ru, Rh, Pd, Pt,
Ag, Au) and from first-row (Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) metal complexes [1,2]. However, to this day, the
development of suitable early transition metal complexes (group 3-7) for the preparation of
corresponding oxide, sulfide, etc. NPs has attracted only sporadic attention.

This presentation will focus on the use of highly reactive Mo(0) complex for the synthesis of
mo-lybdenum oxide and sulfide NPs at room temperature. These results will illustrate how
the choice of the substrate, stabilizing ligand and solvent system can lead to stable colloidal
NPs with a diameter of <10 nm in size (Scheme 1) [3].
