Recent Advances in Synthesis of Active Copper-Silver (Cu-Ag) Alloyed by Expeditious of N-Arylation in Aqueous Media: A Green Approach

Author : Shashank Singh Rathor and Dr. Hemant Kashyap

Abstract :

Copper-based alloy nanoparticles (NPs) have in recent times prompted research interests in the advance of economical and high-concert bimetallic catalysts with large numbers of industrial applications i.e., catalysis, development of supercapacitors, infrared-based filters, magnetic storage media, sensors, and semiconductors. The present work focused on the combination of alloyed made by Cu-Ag bimetallic nanoparticles using an electrochemical method. The outcomes revealed that the execution of the reaction at 60ºC in aqueous media and solvent-free conditions promotes a significant increase in yield. The active Cu-Ag nanoparticles were synthesized using purely green techniques for C-N, C-H, and C-C coupling. The catalytic applications of Cu-Ag bimetallic nanoparticles with different ratio have been found by N-arylation. The electrochemically derived method for the synthesis of Cu-Ag bimetallic nanoparticles has not needed thorough conditions and toxic substances.
