NixWO2.72 nanorods (NRs) are synthesized by a one-pot reaction of Ni(acac)2 and WCl4. In the rod structure, Ni(II) intercalates in the defective perovskite-type WO2.72 and is stabilized. The NixWO2.72 NRs show the x-dependent electrocatalysis for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in 0.1 M KOH with Ni0.78WO2.72 being the most efficient, even outperforming the commercial Ir-catalyst. The synthesis is not limited to NixWO2.72 but can be extended to MxWO2.72 (M = Co, Fe) as well, providing a new class of oxide-based catalysts for efficient OER and other energy conversion reactions.
