title: Unexpected, spontaneous and selective formation of colloidal Pt3Sn nanoparticles using organometallic Pt and Sn complexes.
abstract: The facile and selective synthesis of small crystalline Pt(3)Sn alloy nanoparticles was performed at room temperature under H(2), using a colloidal approach without the use of extra-stabilizing ligands. The Pt(3)Sn alloy was found to be obtained spontaneously as the unique phase regardless of the number of tin equivalents introduced.
