biogenic synthesis of palladium nanoparticles mediated by artemisia abrotanumaqueous extract and its catalytic evaluationfor suzuki coupling reactions

A basic and organic procedure for the synthesis of palladium nanoparticles (pd nps) was devised, employing the non-toxic and renewable natural extract from artemisia abrotanum as a reducing, stabilizing and capping agent. to categorize the fabricated pdnps@artemisia catalyst, uv-vis spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (xrd), fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), field emission scanning electron microscopy (fe-sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (eds) methods were applied. in suzuki-miyaura crosscoupling reactions, the pdnps@artemisia excellently displayed their role as reusable nanocatalysts at room temperature in such a way to be recycled for 7 runs without any notable decrease in their catalytic behavior.
