Abstract

This work describes the green synthesis and the characterization of nanoparticles of iron(II) gluconate complex, which is known to have antianemic properties. Iron(II) gluconate was synthesized by using ferrous chloride and sodium gluconate. The aqueous extract of leaves of Cataranthus roseus was used as a capping as well as reducing agent for the fabrication of nanoparticles of iron(II) gluconate complex. The synthesized Fe(II) complex and its nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible, FTIR, SEM and FESEM techniques. Mechanism of plant leaf mediated synthesis has also been discussed.
