        abstract = {Green chemistry has become a revolutionary way of approaching chemical research and industrial practice, working towards an ultimate objective of reducing or avoiding the use and production of dangerous substances. This review summarizes the basic ideas of green chemistry, its need, objectives, restrictions, and the twelve guiding principles, and specifically, atom economy as a key measure of efficiency of a reaction. The article is based on the supporting materials and abundant literature that covers the theoretical basis, applications, industrial applications, and opportunities of green chemistry in the future. The discussion is backed by more than thirty academic sources to ensure a solid academic basis on which the research can be developed},
