Abstract
Green chemistry seeks to design less hazardous chemicals, but many of the efforts to replace chemicals have resulted in so-called "Regrettable Substitutions", when a chemical with an unknown or unforeseen hazard is used to replace a chemical identified as problematic. Here, we discuss the literature on regrettable substitution and focus on an oft-mentioned case, Bisphenol A, which was replaced with Bisphenol S-and the lessons that can be learned from this history. In particular, we focus on how Green Toxicology can offer a way to make better substitutions.
