Abstract: Green chemistry, also known as sustainable chemistry, has gained significant attention in recent years as a paradigm shift towards environmentally benign processes. This paper explores the application of green chemistry principles in pharmaceutical synthesis, focusing on sustainable drug manufacturing. We discuss key strategies, principles, and case studies that showcase the integration of green chemistry in the pharmaceutical industry. Additionally, this paper presents tables highlighting examples of green chemistry practices in different stages of drug synthesis.
