Abstract
-
Prevention of waste/by-products.
-
Maximum incorporation of the reactants (starting materials and reagents) into the final product.
-
Prevention or minimization of hazardous products.
-
Designing of safer chemicals.
-
Energy requirement for any synthesis should be minimum.
-
Selecting the most appropriate solvent.
-
Selecting the appropriate starting materials.
-
Use of the protecting group should be avoided whenever possible.
-
Use of catalysts should be preferred wherever possible.
-
Products obtained should be biodegradable.
-
The manufacturing plants should be so designed as to eliminate the possibility of accidents during operations.
-
Strengthening of analytical techniques to control hazardous compounds.
