Despite the ready availability of many journals c. s s.r andaccesstovariousdatabasesandsearchengines,itisratherdifficultfor b u chemists to routinely and quickly glean informed inputs for selecting the p p:// right reagents for a desired synthetic transformation in terms of hazards htt involved and environmental footprint associated with it. This book, edited n 7 o by two chemists with diverse backgrounds, one an experienced and know- 1 0 ledgeable chemist from industry involved in process innovation and re- 2 er search and the other from academia, captures some notable case studies b m e wherehazardousreagentsaresoughttobereplacedbylesshazardousones. v No Valuable information about existing and upcoming reagents and catalysts n 28 for diverse transformations is also included in the book. The extent of in- o formationandtrendsinpharmaceuticaldevelopmentcapturedinthisbook d he makes it an essential resource for scientists working at the frontiers of re- s bli search both in industry and in academia. All the chapters are written with u P considerable rigor and duly factor-in the context of each example and the choice of reagents employed in a particular synthesis. All the chapters pro- videtherelevantbackgroundandincluderelevantreferences.Thebookcan be regarded as a benchmark for the development and evolution of non- hazardous reagents and facilitate making a ‘reagent switch’ wherever con- siderations of sustainability, green chemistry and safety (non-hazardous handling) so warrant. Taken as a whole, this contribution has the potential toofferanextremelyusefulguidetoarrive atsafer reagentsforsynthesisof not only pharmaceutically relevant molecules but also for useful materials deployed in diverse domains.

This book features eight chapters as well as the foreword. Chapter I, entitled Introduction to HazardousReagentSubstitutioninthePharmaceuticalIndustry,talksabout substitution of hazardous reagents with less or non-hazardous ones as one of the most essential parts of risk management in the work place, whether it is a research and development or a manufacturing set-up. Chapter II, entitled Recyclability of Reagents, emphasizes the reduction and disposal GreenChemistrySeriesNo.52 HazardousReagentSubstitution:APharmaceuticalPerspective EditedbyRakeshKumarSharmaandRakeshwarBandichhor rTheRoyalSocietyofChemistry2018 PublishedbytheRoyalSocietyofChemistry,www.rsc.org ix View Online x Introduction of the reagents meaningfully. Chapter III, entitled Recoverable Polymer- Supported DMAP Derivatives, elaborates on the significance of polymer- supported catalysis for chemists to recycle the reagents and reduce the overall carbon footprint of synthesis. Chapter IV, entitled Synthesis of 9 0 Atorvastatin, describes the switch of a set of hazardous reagents to a less 0 P F hazardousreagentsystemfromfirst-tothird-generationsynthesis.ChapterV, 7- 4 entitled Synthesis of Raloxifene, talks about the evolutionary trend of 8 3 2 reagent switching as newer generations of synthesis took precedence over 6 2 8 time.ChapterVI,entitledSynthesisofMontelukast,encompassestheuseof 7 1 8 lesshazardousreagentsandscalableconditionsinprocesschemistryroutes. 7 9 9/ ChapterVII,entitledDevelopmentofaSafe,Scalable,Azide-FreeSynthesisof 3 10 1-Aryl-1H-TetrazolesusingDiformylhydrazine,detailsthedevelopmentofan 0. 1 improved and more efficient, safe process for the synthesis of tetrazoles. oi: d Finally, Chapter VIII, entitled New Directions From Academia, summarizes org | the scope and limitations of industry-academia collaborative research. sc.
