This research presents a novel biological route for the biosynthesis of nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs) using marine macroalgae extract as a reducing and coating agent under optimized synthesis conditions. XRD and TEM analyses revealed that phytosynthesized NiO NPs are crystalline in nature with a spherical shape having a mean particle size of 32.64 nm. TGA results indicated the presence of marine-derived organic constituents on the surface of NiO NPs. It is found that biogenic NiO NPs with BET surface area of 45.59 mg is a highly efficient catalyst for benign one-pot preparation of pyridopyrimidine derivatives using aqueous reaction conditions. This environmentally friendly procedure takes considerable advantages of shorter reaction times, excellent product yields (up to 96%), magnetically viable nanocatalyst (7 runs), low catalyst loadings, and free toxic chemical reagents.
本研究提出了一种新颖的生物合成路线,使用海洋大型藻类提取物作为还原剂和包覆剂,在优化的合成条件下合成氧化镍纳米粒子(NiO NPs)。XRD 和 TEM 分析表明,所合成的 NiO NPs 为结晶性,具有球形形貌,平均粒径为 32.64nm。TGA 结果表明,NiO NPs 表面存在海洋衍生的有机成分。研究发现,生物合成的 NiO NPs 具有 BET 比表面积 45.59mg,是一种高效的催化剂,可在水相反应条件下温和地一锅法制备吡啶并嘧啶衍生物。该绿色环保方法具有反应时间短、产率高(高达 96%)、可回收利用的磁性纳米催化剂(7 次循环)、低催化剂用量和无毒性化学试剂等优点。
