Abstract:A green method of silver nanoparticle (AgNP) preparation using curcumin caffeate (CCaf) as stabilizing/capping and reducing group is reported here. CCaf is prepared through esterification of curcumin and caffeic acid in presence of p‐toluene sulphonic acid as catalyst. CCaf facilitates production of AgNPs in aqueous medium and room temperature without any external reducing agents. The antioxidant, antibacterial and BSA binding interactions of these CCafAgNPs are evaluated. The antioxidant activity and the corr… Show more
