A Review on Green Synthesis of Biologically Active Compounds

Abstract

Abstract: In recent decades, green synthesis is increasingly being employed for more environmentally friendly processes and constitutes one central theme of research and development in both academic and industrial chemistry. “Green Chemistry” refers to the design of products and processes that imply the reduction or elimination of substances that are harmful to life or the environment. Due to the benefits of green synthesis, such as reduced waste and expense, not just pharmaceutical firms but also other chemical industries have begun to take steps towards it. Green synthesis techniques include using green solvents, catalysts, and other materials. This review article illustrates the utilization of sustainable methods in the synthesis of biologically active compounds via different green methodologies, such as green solvents, green catalyst, green media, etc. We hope that this chapter will provide a quick overview of the different aspects of green chemistry.
