Abstract

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles via an eco-friendly route is an active area of research because of its unique properties. Present work deals with green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using mint leaves and its catalytic behaviour was explored for the oxidation of metronidazole (MTZ) by hexacyanoferrate (HCF) as an oxidant. Firstly, synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared analysis. The degradation of metronidazole by hexacyanoferrate was studied spectrophometrically, both in the absence and presence of silver nanoparticles catalyst in basic medium under pseudo first order condition. It was observed that the silver nanoparticles as catalyst significantly increases the reaction rate and overall thermodynamic activation parameters were also calculated.
