Learning Green Chemistry and its principles from Nature’s process and development of green procedures mimicking nature

Abstract: We have highlighted an example of a natural process like photosynthesis to introduce the subject of Green Chemistry. Photosynthesis can be an ideal example to illustrate a green process explaining all the features such as selection of raw materials, solvent, catalyst, energy, etc. for an environment-friendly reaction. From the same reaction, all the principles of Green Chemistry can be derived in a simpler way without the need of memorizing these in a set language. In this article, a few examples of green procedures for the synthesis of useful molecules have been illustrated in light of the knowledge of photosynthesis. The visible-light mediated reactions, organic reactions in water, and solvent-free organic reactions are discussed here for a practical illustration of Green synthesis.
