Abstract Yttrium oxide nanoparticles (Y2O3 NPs) are synthesized successfully using Forsythiae fructus aqueous fruit extract. The structrural and morphological properties of Y2O3 NPs were systematically studied by FTIR, SEM, TEM, XPS and XRD patterns. The results indicate the NPs with flake-like flower morphology. The overall results indicated that the green synthesized Y2O3 NPs exhibited potent anti-cancer activity against renal carcinoma cells. The synthesis method is inexpensive, eco-friendly, reduced harmful side effects and alternative to physical/chemical methods.
