Vanadium oxides nanorods with high crystallinity and high surface area were synthesized by hydrothermal method using laurylamine hydrochloride, metal alkoxide and acetylacetone. The samples characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption isotherm, SEM, TEM, and SAED. Uniformly sized B phase VO{sub 2} nanorods had widths about 40-80nm and lengths reaching up to 1{mu}m. V{sub 2}O{sub 5} rodlike structured with the widths about 100-500nm and the lengths of 1-10{mu}m were obtained by calcination at 400 deg. C for 4h. This synthesis method provides a new simple route to fabricate one-dimensional nanostructured metal oxides under mild conditions.
