The field of nanotechnology is one of the most active researches nowadays in modern material science and technology. Eco friendly methods of green mediated synthesis of nanoparticles are the present research in the limb of nanotechnology. The present work leads to the synthesis of nanoparticles from 1mM CuCl2 solution through ethanolic extract of Phallusia nigra as reducing as well as capping agent. Synthesized nanoparticles are characterized under UV-Vis spectroscopy at the range of 350-420nm. The peak showed at 251nm. The chemical groups studied using FT-IR analysis. Further studies (SEM, XRD and AFM) confirm the shape of nano particles. The higher extract shows higher antioxidant activity found by cyclic voltammetric studies. Based on the result obtained it can be said that the Phallusia nigra can efficiently used in the production of copper oxide nanoparticle and it could be utilized in various fields such as biomedical, nanotechnology and so on.
