ZnO nanocrystals with various shapes (see Figure) have been synthesized via non‐hydrolytic ester elimination sol–gel reactions between zinc acetate and 1,12‐dodecanediol. Uniform anisotropic cone‐shaped, hexagonal cone‐shaped, and rod‐shaped ZnO nanocrystals have been synthesized using various surfactants.
