Highly monodisperse amine‐protected palladium nanoparticles are synthesized by liquid‐phase reduction in the presence of an amine and a carboxylic acid. Their sizes are controlled between 2 and 5 nm using homoepitaxial growth. These palladium nanoparticles are obtained in large‐scale synthesis, and are applicable as structural units for functional materials.
