The following Conference Papers from the 6th International Conference on Green Chemistry are published in IUPAC’s flagship
journal, Pure and Applied Chemistry. Because of the large number of papers accepted for publication, these articles appeared in
both the January and February issues of 2018.They are collected here along with Prefaces from the previous ICGC meetings,
which we hope you will find illuminating.
