The green synthesis method is one among them and aims to eliminate toxic by-products. Developing low-cost and highly efficient photocatalysts is essential to accelerate these reactions. To perform this, it is successfully synthesized manganese vanadate NPs using eco-friendly Butea monosperma leaves by the solution combustion method, and the synthesised NPs were characterized to examine their structural, optical, and morphological properties. The XRD pattern confirms that the synthesised MnV2O6 (MVO) NPs possess a monoclinic structure with an average crystallite size of about 67 nm. UVVis spectroscopy shows a band gap of 1.69 eV indicating the suitability of the materials in the Visible region. The photocatalytic activity of the resulting MVO NPs was evaluated and good photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene dye. Further, experiments were conducted at various parameters to optimize the catalyst and show the rate constant of 0.00467 min?1. catalytic activity of MVO NPs was also studied for the selective oxidation of aromatic alcohols. Among the various oxidizing agents and solvents used in optimization studies, tBuOOH (oxidizing agent) and CH3CN (solvent) showed the highest conversion (%) of benzyl alcohol, i.e., 98%. 2025 Elsevier B.V.
