Copper (Cu) nanoparticles were prepared via a microwave-assisted alcohol reduction process. We have succeeded in selectively preparing monodispersed Cu nanoparticles with or without surface plasmon absorption. Monodispersed Cu nanoparticles with average sizes of 5-6 nm (with the surface plasmon absorption) and 2-3 nm (without the surface plasmon absorption) were prepared using copper(II) octanoate and copper(II) myristate; respectively; as the copper precursors by reduction with alcohols under microwave-heating at 443K for 20 min. Noteworthy; Cu2O and CuO were not observed in the electron diffraction patterns of the prepared Cu nanoparticles; demonstrating chemical stability of the nanoparticles against oxidation in air. When using a long-chain carboxylate as an organic moiety bearing a short alkyl chain (copper(II) octanoate); the rate of the reduction was faster than long one (copper(II) myristate). The activation energies for the reduction of Cu2+ using copper(II) octanoate and copper(II) myristate were estimated to be 115 and 124 kJ mol-1; respectively. We have shown that the length of the alkyl chain contained in the copper precursors; heating temperature; and microwave-irradiation time are important for rapidly preparing monodispersed Cu nanoparticles. © 2007 The Chemical Society of Japan;
