We describe a convenient aqueous route to prepare VO2, based on the reductive precipitation of vanadium dioxide VO2 from a vanadate solution. The effect of the reaction conditions is systematically studied, and a protocol to optimize the production of VO2 while minimizing the appearance of other compounds is presented. The products were characterized using calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy.
