Microwave assisted synthesis: A green chemistry approach
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Green Chemistry with its twelve principles would like to see changes in the conventional chemical synthesis and the use of less toxic starting materials. Green Chemistry would like to increases the efficiency of synthetic methods, to use less toxic solvents, reduce the stages of the synthetic routes and minimize waste as far as practically possible. Green chemistry applies across the life cycle of a chemical product, including its design, manufacture, and use. Green chemistry technologies provide a number of benefits, including reduced use of energy and resources, reduced waste, eliminating costly end-of-the-pipe treatments, safer products improved competitiveness of chemical manufacturers and their customers. Looking at the definition of green chemistry, the first thing one sees is the concept of invention and design. In many ways, this is a wonderful time in history to be a chemist or chemical engineer. The challenges that confront the planet are nothing short of the most consequential that humanity has ever faced. Simply put, if we do not meet the challenges of maintaining the viability of the biosphere, humanity will not survive to see any future challenges. Eco-friendly technology is used to produce environment friendly products by using renewable resources. This article is an attempt to provide the basic concept of eco-friendly technology. In this way, chemical synthesis will be part of the effort for sustainable development. Microwave assisted synthesis has revolutionized chemical synthesis. Small molecules can be built in a fraction of the time required by conventional methods. Microwave-assisted synthesis is rapidly becoming the method of choice in modern chemical synthesis and drug discovery. The present article will highlight the applications of microwave-assisted synthesis in organic molecules involved in microwave heating.
