Green Chemistry has evolved in response to several environmental issues in the second half of the last century, mostly due to the almost freely expanding chemical, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries. During the past two decades Green Chemistry grew rapidly and we can now consider this area as a mature and powerful field. Tremendous development has taken place in many important areas including renewable energy and resources, reaction environments, catalysis, synthesis, chemical biology, green materials, in situ monitoring and facile recycling. The combination of Green Chemistry with engineering, biology, toxicology, and physics will lead to novel interdisciplinary systems, which can now lift Green Chemistry to the next, advanced level.

The editors of this book have assembled as authors among the best specialists of this growing area of research. This collection of reviews and perspectives provides an exciting vision of the more recent developments in Green Chemistry. It illustrates the breath of the field and its role to address environmental issues. This volume will serve as a book of reference showing a panoramic view of the field and a preview of its future direction as well as a book of inspiration for those aiming to further advance its frontiers.

Contents:

  • Origins and Early History of Green Chemistry (Paul T Anastas)
  • Conversion of Carbohydrates to Chemicals (László T Mika and Edit Cséfalvay)
  • Solvation Behavior of Ionic Liquids and Their Role in the Production of Lignocellulosic Biofuels and Sustainable Chemical Feedstocks (Coby J Clarke, Wei-Chien Tu, Lisa Weigand, Agnieszka Brandt and Jason P Hallett)
  • Aliphatic Nitro Compounds as Key Precursors for the Eco-Friendly Synthesis of Fine Chemicals under Solvent-Free Conditions (Roberto Ballini and Alessandro Palmieri)
  • Green Reaction Media for Cross-Coupling Reactions: A Recent Overview and Possible Directions (Stefano Santoro, Eleonora Ballerini, Assunta Marrocchi, Oriana Piermatti and Luigi Vaccaro)
  • In Situ Monitoring of the Electrochemical Surface Modification by Thin Organic Layers (Jörg Rappich, Guoguang Sun and Karsten Hinrichs)
  • Continuous Flow Technologies in the Development of "Green" Organic Reactions and Processes (Klaus Hellgardt and King Kuok (Mimi) Hii)

Readership: Graduate students, researchers and professionals in catalyst chemistry, environmental/atmospheric chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, biological chemistry.
