In this strategy, dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) was used as a thiolate source instead of methyl mercaptan(CH_3SH). DMSO was first decomposed into CH_3SH and formaldehyde(HCHO); then, the in situ as-formed CH_3SH molecules reacted with palladium acetate, and formed [Pd(SCH_3)_2]_6. By tuning the reaction condition, the morphology of the [Pd(SCH_3)_2]_6 assemblies can change from microprism to nanosphere. The characterization of the pyrolysis product demonstrated that these two kinds of [Pd(SCH_3)_2]_6 assemblies with different shapes could further decompose into palladium or palladium sulfides through different pyrolysis conditions.展开更多
