Description
Green chemsitry is a major evolution in organic chemistry for more efficient, sustainable transformations while minimizing by-products, solvents and waste. In this course, the 12 principle of green chemistry will be presented and illustrated through dedicated chapters to: solvents, catalysis, biotransformation, flow chemistry, organocatalysis and multicomponent and cascade reactions.
Details:
I – Introduction: History, E-factor, 12 principles
II- Solvents: greener solvent, no solvent, water, supercritical CO2, Ionic liquids,
III- Biocatalysis – Biomass
IV- Solids supported reaction/reagents, flow chemistry
V- Microwaves
VI- Multicomponent and cascade reactions
VII- Organocatalysis
Recommended prerequisite
Prerequisites: Organic chemistry
