Description
This study focuses on the green production of palladium nanoparticles utilizing a sustainable and non-hazardous extract derived from the leaves of Polyalthia longifolia (Pl). The synthesized nanoparticles was named as Pl/Pd (0) and were characterized using TGA, ICP-AES, TEM, FESEM, and XRD analysis. The average size of Pl/Pd (0) nanoparticles was found to be 12 nm and showed excellent activity towards the Suzuki coupling and nitroarene reduction reactions. The catalyst also gave good results for the reusability test for both the reactions. It is noted that the same can be reused in the reaction upto to 5 consecutive cycles. In addition to its catalytic activity, the antibacterial activity of the Pl/Pd(0) was also evaluated against Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. The nanoparticles had an inhibitory effect on both the test pathogens. 2025 Elsevier B.V.
