Abstract

ABSTRACT The state of the art of green spectroscopy, as a sustainable and friendly alternative to the classical spectrometric methods of analysis, has been established from the evaluation of the scientific literature published about this topic in the frame of the so-called Green Chemistry paradigm. Special attention has been paid to the fact that keywords like Green Analytical Chemistry, environmentally friendly, or clean analytical method or sustainable analytical chemistry are far from being commonly used in analytical studies. In spite of this fact there are numerous studies that provide direct analytical methodologies, or a reduction of reagents consumption or waste generation, the recycling of used solvents, or the replacement of toxic compounds by non-toxic or, at least, less toxic ones. So, additional efforts must be made to engage the scientific community in the practice of making the work safer and more sustainable in the analytical laboratories.
