Green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles using plant extract for catalysis applications
A plant extract was used as the reducing and capping agent for the green production of zinc oxide nanoparticles. Various techniques, including XRD, SEM, EDX, FT-IR, TGA/DTA, UV-Vis, and TEM, were used for characterization of the materials. These materials exhibited efficient catalysis for the alkylation of acetophenone with benzyl alcohol.
