Application

Octylamine is mainly used to synthesize amphiphilic copolymers for polymer coating of quantum dots (QDs) to make them water-soluble.
Other applications:
  • Synthesis of 2-cyano-N-octylacetamide by reacting with ethyl cyanoacetate.
  • To induce uniformity for synthesizing uniform ultrathin metal sulfide nanostructures.

Colloidal perovskite nanocrystals support bright, narrow PL tunable over the visible spectrum. However, bandgap tuning of these materials remains limited to laboratory-scale syntheses. In this work, we present a polar-solvent-free ligand-mediated transport synthesis of high-quality organic-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals under ambient

X-type ligands, for example, the pair of oleylamine (OAm) and oleic acid (OA), have been widely used to prepare CsPbX3 nanocrystals (NCs). However, the proton exchange between coordinated OAm and OA may induce the detachment of ligands, resulting in poor
