ABSTRACT
Most of the green starting materials either come from biomass or biomass derived materials, but it is not possible to fulfill all the requirements of useful chemicals in the society, like food materials, polymers, textiles, healthcare products, cosmetics, energy sources, detergents, pesticides, paints, and so on, may not be prepared by only biomass or biomass derivatives. It is, therefore, necessary to find out newer green alternatives for starting materials and this may be the future prospects in this direction.
