Abstract
This chapter describes the synthesis of various nanoparticles based on the principles of Green Chemistry. The procedure and main steps in the nanoparticles synthesis using plant extracts are explained. Size and shape of as-obtained nanoparticles, synthesis mechanisms of distinct plant species, and the factors affecting synthesis such as effect of pH, broth concentration, and reaction time are discussed for metal nanoparticles synthesized by a diversity of plants.
