We demonstrate a facile selective synthesis of phase-pure anatase, rutile, and brookite nanocrystal polymorphs of titania (TiO2) using a benign hydrothermal treatment of an industrial grade TiOSO4 precursor. Acetic acid (CH3COOH) is used for the synthesis of anatase, glycolic acid (HOCH2COOH) is used for rutile, and both glycolic acid and ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) are used for obtaining brookite. The detailed morphologies of the as-synthesized materials are determined from a combination of powder X-ray diffraction, trans
