Many syntheses can be made by physical,
chemical or biological methods. However, these
methods have many disadvantages such as the use of
toxic chemicals harmful to humans, animals, plants
and the environment during the synthesis phase, high
energy requirement and cost. Researchers have started
to work on reducing or eliminating these negative
effects in recent years. For this purpose, the concept of
Green Chemistry emerged. Green chemistry, also
called sustainable chemistry, is a field of chemical and
chemical engineering that focuses on the design of
products and processes that will minimize or eliminate
the use and production of hazardous substances. It play
an important roles in biomedicine, nanomedicine,
regenerative medicine, pharmaceutics, environmental
remediation, catalysis, etc. Over the course of the past
decade, green chemistry has demonstrated how
fundamental scientific methodologies can protect
human health and the environment in an economically
beneficial manner. This review explains the
importance of Green Chemistry with a series of
illustrative examples
