“…The authors agreed that the presence of biomolecules in the plant-based extracts played a crucial role in reducing, capping, chelating, and stabilizing the conversion to ZrNPs due to their antioxidant properties [86,87,89,93]. These phytochemicals also helped to form and stabilize the octahedral complex of Zr 2+ phytochemicals [94].…”

“…Zirconium (ZrNPs) nanoparticles can be synthesized by green chemistry methods with high purity using plant-based extracts for diverse applications, such as antimicrobial and dye photocatalytic degradation [86]. They can be prepared from various precursors, including zirconium isopropoxide [87], zirconylchloride octahydrate [88], zirconyl nitrate [84], and zirconyl chloride [89].…”

“…The ZrNPs had cubic, spherical, triangular, and oval shapes with sizes from 10 to <200 nm [87,88] (Table 7). Kazi et al [86] used aqueous leaf extracts from Sphagneticola trilobata to synthesize ZrNPs of various shapes and sizes (20 to 100 nm). These nanomaterials showed antimicrobial properties and antimalarial activity.…”

The synthesis of inorganic nanoparticles for diverse applications is an active research area that involves physical and chemical methods, which typically are expensive, involve hazardous chemical reagents, use complex equipment and synthesis conditions, and consume large amounts of time and energy. Thus, green synthesis methods have emerged as eco-friendly and easy alternatives for inorganic nanoparticle synthesis, particularly the use of plant-based extracts from fruit juice, leaves, seeds, peel, stem, barks, and roots, which act as reducing, capping, and stabilizing agents, contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals and circular economy principles. Therefore, diverse inorganic nanoparticles have been synthesized using plant-based extracts, including gold, silver, titanium dioxide, zinc, copper, platinum, zirconium, iron, selenium, magnesium, nickel, sulfur, cobalt, palladium, and indium nanoparticles, which exhibit different biological activities such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, dye degradation, cytotoxic, analgesic, sedative, wound-healing, skin protection, sensor development, and plant-growth-promoting effects. Therefore, this review summarizes the advantages and limitations of plant-based extracts as reducing, capping, and stabilizing agents for inorganic nanoparticle green synthesis.
