Green Chemistry Labs; An Ongoing Process at Siena College

Alicia B. Todaro and Michael O'Brien. Siena College, Loudonville, NY

As the field of green chemistry grows, it becomes more important to train our students in the principles and practice of green chemistry. At Siena college the organic chemistry laboratory curriculum has been modified to use green chemistry in each experiment. In this presentation the process of changing to green chemistry and some of the experiments used will be discussed.
