Catalyst to cure: applications of a new copper-based nanocatalyst in organic synthesis and cancer treatment†
Abstract
This research explores the diverse applications of copper(0) nanoparticles grafted onto boron carbon nitride nanosheets, using dill leaf extract as a natural reducing and stabilizing agent. This nanocatalyst efficiently catalyzes the synthesis of tetrazole and aniline derivatives, demonstrating good recyclability and promising potential in cancer therapy. By merging sustainability with innovation, this nanocatalyst offers transformative solutions in both synthesis and medical fields.
