Green Syntheses

This book, the first volume in the new Green Syntheses series, presents reaction pathways that include a single reaction or a multi-step sequence to a known product. A unique feature of this series is to include green metrics as a key component of submissions of original works in order to substantiate the level of "greenness" of new chemical processes. It helps fill an expressed need by both academia and industry to incorporate, together with accurate synthetic protocols, metrics analysis as a means to rigorously define efficiency and sustainability of chemical syntheses.
