Green Synthesis of Zinc Oxide and Copper Oxide Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Extract of Oak Fruit Hull (Jaft) and Comparing Their Photocatalytic Degradation of Basic Violet 3

Chromatographic identification of “green capping agents” extracted from Nasturtium officinale (Brassicaceae) leaves for the synthesis of MoO3 nanoparticles

“…40 mMol solution of precursor AHM was reacted with E-1 to synthesize molybdenum oxide NPs by hydrothermal treatment following the reported methodologies [16,[30][31][32].…”

“…Biogenic is an emerging synthesis pathway among nanoresearchers [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][26][27][28][29] for the synthesis of metal NPs with enhanced properties, for examples plant mediated NPs are reported as excellent photocatalysts for degradation of various organic wastes [29][30][31][32][33]. The need of the present moment is to deepen the nanoparticle biogenic synthesis methodologies by defining the mechanism involved in the synthesis process and to individuate the phyto-stabilizer and phyto-reducer agents of the synthesized material.…”

Application of copper nanoparticles containing natural compounds in the treatment of bacterial and fungal diseases

“…In our review of the literature, we found different sizes reported for biosynthesized Cu NPs using plant extracts, for example 20–50 nm for synthetic Cu NPs using Olea europaea leaf extract, 15–20 nm for extract of Punica granatum , 10–100 nm for Punica granatum peel extract, 20–60 nm for coffee powder extract, 20–40 nm for Solanum lycopersicum leaf extract, 5–20 nm for Z. spina‐christi extract 21.50–34.23 nm for aqueous extract of oak fruit hull, and 20 nm for Syzygium aromaticum …”

Magnetically Recoverable Catalysts: Catalysis in Synthesis of Polyhydroquinolines

“…Although these protocols are valuable, there are several drawbacks such as tedious work up routs, unsatisfactory yields and difficult separation or recovery . Furthermore, in these catalytic strategies, fewer sites on the surface are accessible for catalysis; less reactive and selective is the catalytic system, and sometimes the support itself can act as the catalyst of side reactions …”
