ABSTRACT
A primary goal of green chemistry is the adjustment of reaction conditions such that waste generation is minimized without compromising product yields.1 Green modi’cations of diverse transformations, including the Diels-Alder reaction,2,3 aldol condensation,2,4 Wittig reaction,5 Passerini reaction,6 and Suzuki reaction,7 have been reported for the organic teaching laboratory. Such experiments and others address
