Green, sustainable chemistry involves the designing of chemical processes with a view to reducing or even eliminating the use and production of hazardous materials. Recent endeavors have focused on limiting the use of organic solvents and replacing them with new, environmentally benign media. The chemical industry is interested in these cost-effective, alternative solvents and processes.
This book provides a broad overview of the three most commonly used green reaction media. Directed at synthetic organic chemists working in academic and industrial laboratories, it will also serve as a textbook for graduate courses on green chemistry. Successful green reactions are considered, and experimental sections at the ends of the chapters provide important practical details, with illustrations of potential applications. Sufficient information is included to allow selection of the most appropriate medium. Extensively referenced, the volume offers a point of entry into the detailed literature.

"This book is refreshing as it presents a balanced view of the benefits and disadvantages of these materials while acknowledging the lack of available data".
"An unusual, but beneficial, aspect of this book is the experimental sections, which will be of vale to those devising experimental courses. Researchers in the field will find the historical context, as well as the reviews of the diverse types of reaction that can be carried out in these solvents, valuable".
