green chemistry

Green Materials, Green Bioprocesses, Green Energy, Green Industrial Processes and Molecular Innovation, Green Policy, Sustainability and Safety cover the areas of great importance encompassed within IUPAC’s mission to provide objective scientific expertise and to disseminate the chemical knowledge for the benefit of everybody, enabling the humanity with the essential tools to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. De Gruyter and IUPAC are pleased to collect content on this important topic in this Virtual Issue.

  • Pure and Applied Chemistry

  • Chemistry International

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.

Chemistry International is the newsmagazine of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). News about IUPAC, its chemists, its publications, its recommendations, its conferences and the work of its commissions and committees is published quarterly in CI.

Pure and Applied Chemistry is the official monthly Journal of IUPAC, with responsibility for publishing works arising from those international scientific events and projects that are sponsored and undertaken by the Union. The policy is to publish highly topical and credible works at the forefront of all aspects of pure and applied chemistry, and the attendant goal is to promote widespread acceptance of the Journal as an authoritative and indispensable holding in academic and institutional libraries.
