Abstract

Catalytic activity of synthesized capped silver nanoparticles was performed in the reduction of p-phenylene diamine from p-nitroaniline in the presence of reducing agent sodium borohydride. The rate of reduction is observed with nanoparticles having different sizes 40, 20 and 40 ± 2 nm. The product obtained in the presence of 20 nm size nanoparticles is in good yield and produced in less time when compared to other nanoparticles. Moreover it is observed that this catalyst showed maximum efficiency at 1 mM concentration and also act as potential recyclable catalyst.
