Green Solvents in Chemical Reactions

Manviri Rani, Uma Shanker

Due to environmental toxicity, harmful impact and prolonged exposure of traditional solvents on all living organisms, the trend of using green technology in scientific work has been in progress. Reducing the use of solvents or replacing them with less toxic/green ones, are two of the most important ambitions of green chemistry. Water, ionic liquids (imidazolium-based), supercritical fluids, deep eutectic solvents or bio-based solvents, non-toxic liquid polymers and their varied combinations have been extensively used as part of the class of green solvents in organic synthesis. They are characterized by low toxicity, convenient accessibility, and the possibility of reuse as well as great efficiency. Moreover, green organic solvents have been used in analytical extraction and chromatographic separation processes. The use of natural ingredients to synthesize nanomaterials and design environmentally benign synthetic processes has been extensively explored.
