The green chemistry philosophy has aroused great interest within the ranks of solvent chemists. The challenge set by its demand for increased mass and energy efficiency coupled with environmental benevolence has been met, at least in part, by various solutions in the collective guise of the so-called neoteric solvents. What gives solvents their apparent high priority within the sphere of green chemistry relative to other chemicals is the volume in which they are used. A typical lab-scale organic reaction will be conducted as a solution, and purification by way of recrystallization or chromatography will also require a solvent. The total mass of solvent used throughout a synthetic procedure will inevitably outweigh the contribution of all other chemicals to the anticipated waste stream [1]. As such any valuable attributes possessed by a solvent need to be balanced against human and ecological toxicity alongside other pollution and safety concerns prior to use.
