The demands for green and sustainable synthetic methods in the
fields of healthcare and fine chemicals, combined with the pressure
to produce these substances expeditiously and in an environmentally
benign fashion, pose significant challenges to the synthetic
chemical community. Green chemistry can avoid pollution by
utilizing techniques that are environmentally friendly by design
and one of the best green techniques is the use of microwave (MW)
assisted aqueous synthetic protocols. Fusing MW technique with
water (as a benign reaction medium) can offer an extraordinary
synergistic effect with greater potential than these two individual
components in isolation. Selective microwave heating can be
exploited to develop a high yield protocol and the use of water
expedites the MW-protocol with more energy efficiency.
This book provides an overview of the various processes
developed using aqueous microwave chemistry and is written for
chemists, chemical engineers and researchers in the early stages
who want to develop sustainable and green processes. Written by
well known microwave experts, the book is a comprehensive
examination of the field and is the first book that deals strictly
with aqueous microwave chemistry and represents a significant
effort towards green chemistry. It covers all the
microwave-assisted aqueous reactions in depth, including
heterocycle synthesis, metal catalysis, enzyme catalysis, polymer
synthesis, nanomaterials synthesis and nano-catalysis. Each chapter
contains representative experimental procedures, helping the reader
quickly replicate some of the experiments to gain hands-on
experience.
