Abstract
The current work is devoted to a comparative analysis of enhanced co-factors in solidified floating organic drop microextraction methods (SFODME) and an environmental assessment. Also, the description of SFODME, with a focus on its applications in the determination of metals in different matrices, was explained. The impact of several parameters, developments, and greenness evaluations was introduced. Especially, the review provides a concise overview of the multiple approaches to SFODME, with an emphasis on environmentally friendly, supported co-factors. These mods include ultrasound, vortex, and air-assisted SFODME procedures. The selectivity and sensitivity increase when co-factors are added to SFODME. Lastly, the analysis also aims to select tools (Analytic GREEnness Metric Approach (AGREE), Red-Green-Blue (RGB12), and Blue Applicability Grade Index (BAGI)) that have been described as environmentally friendly. Additionally provide an explanation of the data collected, compare, and emphasize the advantages of certain characteristics in each tool. Furthermore, case studies and comparisons for three tools were shown.

Abstract
Chemistry, a vital tool for sustainable development, faces a challenge due to the lack of clear guidance on actionable steps, hindering the optimal adoption of sustainability practices across its diverse facets from discovery to implementation. This Scientific Perspective explores established frameworks and principles, proposing a conciliated set of triple E priorities anchored on Environmental, Economic, and Equity pillars for research and decision making. We outline associated metrics, crucial for quantifying impacts, classifying them according to their focus areas and scales tackled. Emphasizing catalysis as a key driver of sustainable synthesis of chemicals and materials, we exemplify how triple E priorities can practically guide the development and implementation of processes from renewables conversions to complex customized products. We summarize by proposing a roadmap for the community aimed at raising awareness, fostering academia-industry collaboration, and stimulating further advances in sustainable chemical technologies across their broad scope.

Abstract
Natural toxins (NTs) are poisonous secondary metabolites produced by living organisms developed to ward off predators. Especially low molecular weight NTs (MW<∼1 kDa), such as mycotoxins, phycotoxins, and plant toxins, are considered an important and growing food safety concern. Therefore, accurate risk assessment of food and feed for the presence of NTs is crucial. Currently, the analysis of NTs is predominantly performed with targeted high pressure liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) methods. Although these methods are highly sensitive and accurate, they are relatively expensive and time-consuming, while unknown or unexpected NTs will be missed. To overcome this, novel on-site screening methods and non-targeted HPLC high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) methods have been developed. On-site screening methods can give non-specialists the possibility for broad "scanning" of potential geographical regions of interest, while also providing sensitive and specific analysis at the point-of-need. Non-targeted chromatography-HRMS methods can detect unexpected as well as unknown NTs and their metabolites in a lab-based approach. The aim of this chapter is to provide an insight in the recent advances, challenges, and perspectives in the field of NTs analysis both from the on-site and the laboratory perspective.

Abstract
Sonochemistry is the use of ultrasonic waves in an aqueous medium, to generate acoustic cavitation. In this context, sonochemistry emerged as a focal point over the past few decades, starting as a manageable process such as a cleaning technique. Now, it is found in a wide range of applications across various chemical, physical, and biological processes, creating opportunities for analysis between these processes. Sonochemistry is a powerful and eco-friendly technique often called "green chemistry" for less energy use, toxic reagents, and residues generation. It is increasing the number of applications achieved through the ultrasonic irradiation (USI) method. Sonochemistry has been established as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative compared to traditional industrial methods. It promotes scientific and social well-being, offering non-destructive advantages, including rapid processes, improved process efficiency, enhanced product quality, and, in some cases, the retention of key product characteristics. This versatile technology has significantly contributed to the food industry, materials technology, environmental remediation, and biological research. This review is created with enthusiasm and focus on shedding light on the manifold applications of sonochemistry. It delves into this technique's evolution and current applications in cleaning, environmental remediation, microfluidic, biological, and medical fields. The purpose is to show the physicochemical effects and characteristics of acoustic cavitation in different processes across various fields and to demonstrate the extending application reach of sonochemistry. Also to provide insights into the prospects of this versatile technique and demonstrating that sonochemistry is an adapting system able to generate more efficient products or processes.

Abstract
In order to contribute to the shift from petro-based chemistry to biobased chemistry, necessary to minimize the environmental impacts of the chemical industry, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol (4-vinyl guaiacol, 4VG) was used to synthesize a platform of biobased monomers. Thus, nine biobased monomers were successfully prepared. The synthesis procedures were investigated through the green metrics calculations in order to quantify the sustainability of our approaches. Their radical homopolymerization in toluene solution initiated by 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) (AIBN) was studied and the effect of residual 4VG as a radical inhibitor on the kinetics of polymerization was also explored. The new homopolymers were characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectroscopy, size exclusion chromatography and thermal analyses (dynamical scanning calorimetry DSC, thermal gravimetric analysis TGA). By varying the length of the alkyl ester or ether group of the 4VG derivatives, homopolymers with Tg ranging from 117 °C down to 5 °C were obtained. These new biobased monomers could be implemented in radical copolymerization as substitutes to petro-based monomers to decrease the carbon footprint of the resulting copolymers for various applications.

Abstract
The efficiency of a catalytic process is assessed based on conversion, yield, and time effectiveness. However, these parameters are insufficient for evaluating environmentally sustainable research. As the world is urged to shift towards green catalysis, additional factors such as reaction media, raw material availability, sustainability, waste minimization and catalyst biosafety, need to be considered to accurately determine the efficacy and sustainability of the process. By combining the high porosity and versatility of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and the activity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), efficient, cyclable and biosafe composite catalysts can be achieved. Thus, a composite based on AuNPs and the nanometric flexible porous iron(III) aminoterephthalate MIL-88B-NH2 was successfully synthesized and fully characterized. This nanocomposite was tested as catalyst in the reduction of nitroarenes, which were identified as anthropogenic water pollutants, reaching cyclable high conversion rates at short times for different nitroarenes. Both synthesis and catalytic reactions were performed using green conditions, and even further tested in a time-optimizing one-pot synthesis and catalysis experiment. The sustainability and environmental impact of the catalytic conditions were assessed by green metrics. Thus, this study provides an easily implementable synthesis, and efficient catalysis, while minimizing the environmental and health impact of the process.

Abstract
This work proposes the use of multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) to select a more environmentally friendly analytical procedure. TOPSIS, which stands for Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution, is an example of a MCDA method that may be used to rank or select best alternative based on various criteria. Thirteen analytical procedures were used in this study as TOPSIS input choices for mifepristone determination in water samples. The input data, which consisted of these choices, was described using assessment criteria based on 12 principles of green analytical chemistry (GAC). Based on the objective mean weighting (MW), the weights for each criterion were assigned equally. The most preferred analytical method according to the ranking was solid phase extraction with micellar electrokinetic chromatography (SPE-MEKC), while solid phase extraction combined with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (SPE-UHPLC-MS/MS) was ranked last. TOPSIS ranking results were also compared to the green metrics NEMI, Eco-Scale, GAPI, AGREE, and AGREEprep that were used to assess the greenness of thirteen analytical methods for mifepristone determination. The results demonstrated that only the AGREE metric tool correlated with TOPSIS; however, there was no correlation with other metric tools. The analysis results suggest that TOPSIS is a very useful tool for ranking or selecting the analytical procedure in terms of its greenness and that it can be easily integrated with other green metrics tools for method greenness assessment.

Abstract
In the quest for eco-conscious innovations, this research was designed for the sustainable synthesis of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles, using ferric chloride hexahydrate salt as a precursor and extract of Eucalyptus globulus leaves as both a reducing and capping agent, which are innovatively applied as a photocatalyst for the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics "ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin". Sugar cane bagasse biomass, sugar cane bagasse pyrolyzed biochar, and magnetite/sugar cane bagasse biochar nanocomposite were also synthesized via environmentally friendly organized approaches. The optimum conditions for the degradation of ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin were found to be pH 6 for ciprofloxacin and 5 for amoxicillin, dosage of the photocatalyst (0.12 g), concentration (100 mg/L), and irradiation time (240 min). The maximum efficiencies of percentage degradation for ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin were found to be (73.51%) > (63.73%) > (54.57%) and (74.07%) > (61.55%) > (50.66%) for magnetic nanocomposites, biochar, and magnetic nanoparticles, respectively. All catalysts demonstrated favorable performance; however, the "magnetite/SCB biochar" nanocomposite exhibited the most promising results among the various catalysts employed in the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics. Kinetic studies for the degradation of antibiotics were also performed, and notably, the pseudo-first-order chemical reaction showed the best results for the degradation of antibiotics. Through a comprehensive and comparative analysis of three unique photocatalysts, this research identified optimal conditions for efficient treatment of drug-contaminated wastewater, thus amplifying the practical significance of the findings. The recycling of magnetic nanoparticles through magnetic separation, coupled with their functional modification for integration into composite materials, holds significant application potential in the degradation of antibiotics.

Abstract
Recently, green analytical chemistry (GAC) is a key issue towards the idea of sustainability, the analytical community is focused on developing analytical methods that incorporate green chemistry principles to minimize adverse impacts on the environment and humans. Herein, we present 2 sustainable, selective, and validated chromatographic methods. Initially, lidocaine hydrochloride (LDC) and miconazole nitrate (MIC) with two preservatives; methyl paraben (MTP) and saccharin sodium (SAC) were chromatographed via TLC-densitometric method which employed ethyl acetate: methanol: formic acid (9:1:0.1, by volume) as the mobile phase with UV detection at 220.0 nm, good correlation was obtained in the range of 0.3-3.0 µg/band for MIC and LDC. Following that, RP-HPLC was successfully applied for separating quinary mixture of LDC, MIC, MTP, SAC along with LDC impurity; dimethyl aniline (DMA) using C18 column, and a gradient green mobile phase composed of methanol and phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) in different ratios with a flow rate 1.5 mL/min and UV detection at 210.0 nm, linearity ranges from 1.00 to 100.00 µg/mL for MIC, 2.00-100.00 µg/mL for LDC and 1.00--20.00 µg/mL for MTP and DMA. No records to date regarding the determination of the two drugs, besides MTP and DMA. The proposed methods were validated according to the ICH guidelines and applied successfully to the analysis of the compounds. The methods' results were statistically compared to those obtained by applying the reported one, indicating no significant difference regarding both accuracy and precision. The methods' greenness profiles have been assessed and compared with those of the reported method using different assessment tools.

Abstract
The use of organocatalysts and a pot economy has strengthened recent organic syntheses. Synthetic methodologies may be applicable in laboratory preparation or in the industrial production of valuable organic compounds. In most cases, synthetic challenges are overcome by highly efficient and environmentally benign organocatalysts in a pot-economical manner. This is exemplified by the recent synthesis of tetrahydropyridine-containing (-)-quinine.

Abstract
This work reports on the development of collagen films with graphene oxide nanoparticles (GO NPs), aiming toward the development of a new generation of functional sustainable sensors. For this purpose, different GO NP contents up to 3 wt % were incorporated into a collagen matrix, and morphological, thermal, mechanical and electrical properties were evaluated. Independently of the GO NP content, all films display an increase in thermal stability as a result of the increase in the structural order of collagen, as revealed by XRD analysis. Further, the inclusion of GO NPs into collagen promotes an increase in the intensity of oxygen characteristic absorption bands in FTIR spectra, due to the abundant oxygen-containing functional groups, which lead to an increase in the hydrophilic character of the surface. GO NPs also influence the mechanical properties of the composites, increasing the tensile strength from 33.2 ± 2.4 MPa (collagen) to 44.1 ± 1.0 MPa (collagen with 3 wt % GO NPs). Finally, the electrical conductivity also increases slightly with GO NP content, allowing the development of resistive bending sensors.

Solid state cationization reaction of microporous starch with betaine hydrochloride under repeated heating/cooling cycles: Design of a green approach for corn starch modification. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 248:125968.

Abstract
In this research, the cationization process of microporous starch with betaine hydrochloride (BHC) in the presence of H3PO4 (as a catalyst) under heating/cooling cycles was reported for the first time. Granular microporous starch was initially prepared from normal corn starch (NS) through amyloglucosidase treatment. Then, solid state cationization reaction of microporous starch (MS) with betaine hydrochloride (BHC) was performed under repeated dry-heat modification. The cationic microporous starch showed higher substitution degree (0.031) and reaction efficiency (89.1 %) in comparison with cationic starch based on NS (0.021, 60.3 %), which this can be attributed to the increased probability of effective collision between BHC molecules and starch granules after enzymatic treatment. The analysis of cationic starches by FTIR and 13C NMR confirmed the presence of cationic functional groups on starch chains. Further examinations on the modified starches by single and dual treatments were accomplished with respect to morphology, particle size distribution, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), colour parameters, zeta potential, amylose content, viscosity, solubility, and swelling power. The greenness of the suggested dual treatment (score: 82) in this work was evaluated and compared to a conventional method reported in literature (score: 67) on the preparation of cationic starches.

Abstract
Abstract
Microalgae oil has great potential to address the growing energy demand and dependence on fossil fuels. However, the multilayered cell walls of microalgae hinder efficient extraction and enhanced lipid recovery. In this study, we develop a novel protocol based on near infrared-assisted extraction (NIRAE) technology to extract efficiently total lipids from Scenedesmus obliquus. Under a greener solvent extraction approach, the effect of nine non-polar/polar solvent systems in various ratios on lipid yield was tested, and the results were compared with Soxhlet, Folch, and Bligh–Dyer methods. The highest oil yields were NIRAE 15.43%, and Soxhlet 22.24%, using AcoEt/MeOH (1:2 v/v). For Folch and Bligh–Dyer, 9.11 and 10%, respectively. The optimized NIRAE conditions obtained using response surface methodology (RSM): 43.8 min, solvent/biomass 129.90:1 (m/v), and AcOEt/MeOH 0.57:2.43 (v/v) increased the oil yield significantly to 24.20%. In contrast to conventional methods, the overall optimized NIRAE process satisfied the requirements of a green extraction because of the simple and safe operation, less solvent toxicity, lower extraction time, and solvent and energy consumption.

Sustainable solvents for β-diketone extraction from wheat straw wax and their molecular self-assembly into nano-structured tubules for hydrophobic coatings. RSC Adv 2023; 13:2427-2437. [PMID: 36741189 PMCID: PMC9844676 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra07581d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Nonpolar, nonperoxide forming, sustainable and potentially bio-based solvents, namely 2,2,5,5-tetramethyloxolane (TMO) and 2,5-diethyl-2,5-dimethyloxolane (DEDMO), were utilized as an alternative to toxic petroleum-based hydrocarbon solvents for extraction of hentriacontane-14,16-dione from waste wheat straw waxes. This work is the first to report the application of DEDMO as a solvent for the extraction of natural products. The sustainable methodology developed in this research provided considerable advantages over previously reported systems in terms of high extraction yields, excellent selectivity towards the β-diketones and low amounts of waste generated. DEDMO provided the highest recovery yield for all the sustainable solvents investigated, recovering 23.7% of the wax (which is a 68.8% yield of the β-diketone). The extracted lipophilic hentriacontane-14,16-dione was utilised in combination with the sustainable solvents TMO or DEDMO to facilitate the creation of highly hydrophobic coatings. Moreover, the use of DEDMO was found to aid in the self-assembly of nano-structured tubule formation of both the unrefined wax and isolated β-diketone. Green metric evaluation using process mass intensity (PMI), E-factor, solvent intensity (SI), and water intensity (WI) demonstrated that the described extraction procedure for hentriacontane-14,16-dione was highly sustainable and safer than the previous methodology. This sustainable manufacturing process may create the potential to valorise agricultural wastes as part of a holistic biorefinery.

Abstract
We report here a highly efficient green approach for the synthesis of imidazolidin-2-ylidene-indenedione, pyrimidine-2-ylidene-indenedione and indenoquinoxaline derivatives through the one-pot three-component reaction between ninhydrin, malononitrile and various diamines in water medium under catalyst-free conditions. High yields (73-98%) of the target products were achieved with short reaction times at room temperature. Simple workup, no column chromatography, good to excellent yields, rapid reaction and green solvent are the prominent advantages of this protocol.
