Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Green and sustainable chemistry is recognized as a fundamental research field that contributes to the pursuit of the majority of the AGENDA 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Therefore, new or redesigned chemical processes based on the principles of Green Chemistry and Green Engineering are highly desired for well-known and new chemicals, both organic and inorganic. Reliable assessments of the environmental sustainability of the proposed chemical strategies and chemical processes are, however, necessary to quantitatively demonstrate their viability, particularly in the context of the Safe and Sustainable by Design framework. We invite researchers to contribute original and review articles exploring green and environmental sustainable synthetic pathways and chemical processes at the laboratory, pilot and industrial scales, supported by trustworthy and reliable assessments of the associated environmental performances. We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.

N-Benzylhydroxylamine hydrochloride serves as a critical intermediate in organic synthesis, yet traditional synthesis methods often face significant safety risks and high production costs. In this work, we developed a continuous synthesis process for N-benzylhydroxylamine hydrochloride, achieving an overall yield of 75% under mild and safe reaction conditions. Additionally, the implementation of solvent recovery and the recycling of hydroxylamine hydrochloride reduced the production cost to approximately $10 per kilogram. These advancements underscore the economic and practical viability of this method for large-scale industrial applications. Full article
