Abstract
Many students today are profoundly interested in the sustainability of their world. With growing public concern over global warming and greenhouse gases, students want to understand how human actions affect the health of our planet. Students are deeply concerned about pollution. They practice recycling. Moreover, they want to secure a healthy Earth for future generations. As students of chemistry, they have a unique opportunity to start at the ground floor of the exciting and expanding field of green chemistry.

The Cyclohexanol Cycle and Synthesis of Nylon 6,6: Green Chemistry in the Undergraduate Organic Laboratory
Matthew R. Dintzner, Charles R. Kinzie, Kimberly Pulkrabek, and Anthony F. ArenaJournal of Chemical Education2012 89 (2), 262-264The Cyclohexanol Cycle and Synthesis of Nylon 6,6: Green Chemistry in the Undergraduate Organic Laboratory
Matthew R. Dintzner, Charles R. Kinzie, Kimberly Pulkrabek, and Anthony F. ArenaJournal of Chemical Education2012 89 (2), 262-264A one-term synthesis project that incorporates many of the principles of green chemistry is presented for the undergraduate organic laboratory. In this multistep scheme of reactions, students react, recycle, and ultimately convert cyclohexanol to nylon 6,...

Solventless and One-Pot Synthesis of Cu(II) Phthalocyanine Complex: A Green Chemistry Experiment
R. K. Sharma, Chetna Sharma, and Indu Tucker SidhwaniJournal of Chemical Education2011 88 (1), 86-87Solventless and One-Pot Synthesis of Cu(II) Phthalocyanine Complex: A Green Chemistry Experiment
R. K. Sharma, Chetna Sharma, and Indu Tucker SidhwaniJournal of Chemical Education2011 88 (1), 86-87With the growing awareness of green chemistry, it is increasingly important for students to understand this concept in the context of laboratory experiments. Although microwave-assisted organic synthesis has become a common and invaluable technique in ...
Minimizing Hazardous Waste in the Undergraduate Analytical Laboratory: A Microcell for Electrochemistry
Eric J. Olson and Philippe BühlmannJournal of Chemical Education2010 87 (11), 1260-1261Minimizing Hazardous Waste in the Undergraduate Analytical Laboratory: A Microcell for Electrochemistry
Eric J. Olson and Philippe BühlmannJournal of Chemical Education2010 87 (11), 1260-1261Reducing the volume of chemical waste is a fundamental principle of green chemistry. However, many experiments in the undergraduate analytical teaching laboratory ask for relatively large samples to achieve reasonable accuracy and precision. We developed ...
