Aims & Scope

Green Chemistry Letters and Reviews is an Open Access, peer-reviewed journal focused on rapid publication of innovative new syntheses and procedures that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous materials. Reviews of state-of-the-art green chemistry technologies are also included within the journal's scope. Green Chemistry Letters and Reviews is divided into three overlapping topic areas: research, education, and industrial implementation. The journal publishes both letters, which concisely communicate the most time-sensitive results, and reviews, which aid researchers in understanding the state of science on important green chemistry topics. Submissions are encouraged which apply the 12 principles of green chemistry to: -Green Chemistry Education- Synthetic Reaction Pathways- Research and Process Analytical Techniques- Separation and Purification Technologies- Renewable Feedstocks- Degradable Products
