| Abstract
| - A route to prepare nitrides, such as GaN, VN, and other nitrides, is reported. The reaction pathway involves a two-step process by using the as-synthesized a-C3N3.69 as precursor. The route is so potent that a series of nitrides can be directly synthesized from their oxides at moderate temperatures. A striking feature of this method lies in that a-C3N3.69 is found to play double roles as both carbonizing and nitridizing agent in these reactions. These results will greatly deepen our understandings of the mechanism for solid-state metathesis reactions.
