Abstract Two-dimensional layered structures have recently drawn worldwide attention because of their intriguing catalytic properties. Herein, we report the 1T'-phase ammonium (A)- and methylammonium (MA)-intercalated MoS2 nanosheets, Synthesized by one-step hydrothermal reaction. The MA-intercalated MoS2 nanosheets exhibit excellent stability, as well as higher catalytic activity toward the hydrogen evolution reaction than the A-intercalated MoS2. First-principles calculations were used to assess the relative stabilities of the 2H and 1T' phases, showing a trend of 2H -> 1T' phase conversion with increasing concentrations of A or MA. The calculation consistently predicted a higher stability of the MA-intercalated complex, due to reduced repulsion between the positively charged MA, which underlies the excellent catalytic performance.
