Original and effective syntheses of crystalline silver wires and saw bundles, using reduced Keggin polyoxomolybdovanadate (POM) as mediator and reducing agent, were performed in acetonitrile at room temperature; several parameters influencing the final silver 1D-structures, with micrometric length and nanometric thickness, were varied: the nature of the POM, silver salts, vanadium(iv) source an...
