This recorded lecture at Yale on green chemistry is part of the second semester of a two-semester course on Organic Chemistry. This discussion covers the pre-spectroscopy research into the structure of sugars and their ketals, some schemes for synthesizing alcohols, and the current need, especially in the drug industry, to develop safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly solvents. Accompanying materials include readings, problems, and PowerPoints.
