Nickel phosphides are of particular interest because they are highly active and stable catalysts for petroleum/biorefinery and hydrogen production. Despite their significant catalytic potential; synthesizing various phase-pure nickel phosphide nanoparticles of uniform size remains a challenge. In this work; we develop a robust trioctylphosphine (TOP)-mediated route to make highly uniform phase-pure Ni12P5; Ni2P; and Ni5P4 nanoparticles. The synthetic route forms amorphous Ni70P30 nanoparticle intermediates. The reactions can be stopped at the amorphous stage when amorphous particles are desired. The amount of P incorporation can be controlled by varying the ratio of TOP to Ni(II). The mechanism for composition control involves the competition of the kinetics of two processes: the addition of the reduced Ni and the incorporation of P into Ni. Uniform Ni70P30 amorphous nanoparticles can be generated at a high TOP-to-Ni(II) ratio; where the P incorporation kinetics is made to dominate. Ni70P30 can later be transformed into phase-pure Ni12P5; and Ni5P4 nanocrystals of uniform size. The transformation can be controlled precisely by modulating the temperature. A UV-vis study coupled with theoretical modeling reveals Ni(0)-TOPx complexes along the synthetic path. This approach may be expanded to create other metal compounds; potentially enabling the synthesis of uniform nanoparticles of a greater variety. © 2024 The Authors.
