Use of Holistic Metrics in Teaching Activities

The metrics have been used for a variety of activities related to GC teaching based on the assessment of greenness. 

In more recent activities, the green star is being used in a broader study of the synthesis experiments used in the 1st and 2nd years organic and inorganic laboratories of chemistry BSc courses of Portuguese universities. This study showed that the metric is adequate to evaluate separately the three stages of the synthesis process, the reaction step (with ten corner stars), and the two post-reaction steps, isolation and purification (six corner stars). This assessment of the micro-greenness of the steps shows that the post-reaction
