Mr. Atharva Bharat Karale* and Dr. M. D. Game

Abstract

Modern trends in the greener synthesis and fabrication of inorganic, organic and coordination compounds, materials, nanomaterials, hybrids and Nano composites are discussed. Green chemistry deals with synthesis procedures according to its classic 12 principles, contributing to the sustainability of chemical processes, energy savings, lesser toxicity of reagents and final products, lesser damage to the environment and human health, decreasing the risk of global overheating, and more rational use of natural resources and agricultural wastes. Greener techniques have been applied to synthesize both well-known chemical compounds by more sustainable routes and completely new materials. A range of man-sized materials and composites can be produced by. Greener routes, including nanoparticles of metals, nonmetals, their oxides and salts, aerogels or quantum dots. At the same time, such classic materials as cement, ceramics, adsorbents, polymers. Greener approach: This utilizes heating aniline, zinc dust in acetic acid for 2 hrs. Further reaction mixture is poured in water and crystals are collected by filtration. This method does not involve acetic anhydride, hazardous solvent, less waste products.
