Abstract

Organic reactions have been traditionally carried out in organic solvents but the increasing environmental concern has provided the impetus to investigate the behavior of organic reactions under less conventional conditions, water 1 and supercritical carbon dioxide 2 being two of the most prominent systems under investigation. Many organic solvents currently used are toxic and their use should be avoided in industrial plants. The need to reduce the amount of toxic effluents in ...
