Catalytic application of non-toxic Persia americana metabolite entrapped SnO2 nanoparticles towards the synthesis of 3,4-dihydroacridin-1(2H)-ones†
Abstract
Eco-friendly methods in organic synthesis are dynamic prerequisites for environmental safety. In general, metal nanoparticles displayed various levels of toxicity, photocatalytic activity and catalytic activity. Due to their diverse properties, recent work has been focused towards the exploitation of plant sources in nanoparticle synthesis. Herein, we have highlighted the non-toxic studies of green synthesized SnO2 nanoparticles (SnO2 NPs) using Persia americana seed. The catalytic effects of SnO2 NPs were investigated on the synthesis of 3,4-dihydroacridin-1(2H)-ones. Synthesized compounds were confirmed using 1H NMR, 13C NMR and LCMS analysis. We proved that SnO2 NPs are non-toxic towards aquatic organisms.
