Development of New Methodology in Organic Synthesis Enabled by Aqueous Micellar Catalysis

Author(s): Klumphu, Piyatida | Advisor(s): Lipshutz, Bruce H | Abstract: Green Chemistry has become a priority for conducting chemistry in both academia and industry. When advanced processes are developed in the area, chemists not only are concerned with the efficiency of the processes but also the impact on the environment. One of the major criteria of green chemistry, which is the focus of this thesis, is the replacement of organic solvents...
