Abstract
Catalysis is a green methodology aimed at optimizing synthetic procedures, because it simplifies the design of target molecules and reduces energy and material use. Catalytic reactions often rely on polar aprotic solvents, such as dimethylformamide (DMF) or acetonitrile, which present environmental and health issues. In response, manufacturers and researchers are exploring greener alternatives derived from residual biomass, that reduce the negative environmental impact of traditional solvents. These new classes of solvents are termed ‘neoteric’ to distinguish them from traditional solvents with well-established use. This review highlights key findings on the use of these new solvents in metal catalysed coupling reactions.
