  2. Green solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_solvent

    Green solvents are environmentally friendly chemical solvents that are used as a part of green chemistry. They came to prominence in 2015, when the UN defined a new sustainability -focused development plan based on 17 sustainable development goals, recognizing the need for green chemistry and green solvents for a more sustainable future.

  3. Dihydrolevoglucosenone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrolevoglucosenone

    Dihydrolevoglucosenone is considered a "green" replacement for DMF. [5] Several standard reactions of organic chemistry, e.g. Menshutkin reaction, [5] Sonogashira coupling, [18] Suzuki-Miyaura coupling [19] and the production of ureas [20] have been carried out in dihydrolevoglucosenone. Formation of ureas using dihydrolevoglucosenone as a solvent

    Kerton is the co-author of the book Alternative Solvents for Green Chemistry, which is published by the Royal Society for Chemistry. She has also authored Fuels, Chemicals and Materials from the Oceans and Aquatic Sources, which is published by Wiley.

  5. Green Chemistry (journal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Chemistry_(journal)

    Green Chemistry is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering every aspect of sustainable chemistry and its implementation in chemical engineering. It is published by the Royal Society of Chemistry and was established in 1999 by James Clark (University of York). Articles published in this journal are intended to be conceptually ...

  6. Green chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_chemistry

    In short, the impact of the entire lifetime of the solvent, from cradle to grave (or cradle to cradle if recycled) must be considered. Thus the most comprehensive definition of a green solvent is the following: "a green solvent is the solvent that makes a product or process have the least environmental impact over its entire life cycle." [23]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACS_Sustainable_Chemistry...

    ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering is a weekly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the American Chemical Society. [1] [2] It covers research in green chemistry, green engineering, biomass, alternative energy, and life cycle assessment. [3] According to Journal Citation Reports, the journal has an impact factor of 7.1 in 2023. [4]

  8. Cyclopentyl methyl ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclopentyl_methyl_ether

    Cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME), also known as methoxycyclopentane, is a hydrophobic ether solvent. A high boiling point of 106 °C (223 °F) and preferable characteristics such as low formation of peroxides, relative stability under acidic and basic conditions, formation of azeotropes with water coupled with a narrow explosion range render CPME an attractive alternative to other ethereal ...

  9. Colin Raston - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Raston

    Calixarenes resemble chalices (calix in Latin) with hydrophobic cavities that can hold smaller molecules or ions, an example of host–guest chemistry. Raston has demonstrated a green chemistry approach to pyrogallol[4]arene from isovaleraldehyde (3-methylbutanal) and pyrogallol (1,2,3-benzenetriol) with a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic ...
