Acid-Base Selection Tool
The Acid-Base Selection Tool developed by the ACS Green Chemistry Institute Pharmaceutical Roundtable aims to enable scientists across industry and academia to choose more sustainable acids and bases. The Acid-Base Tool contains over 200 acids and bases which the user can filter by parameters including pKa (in water or acetonitrile), functional groups, melting point, and boiling point.

CompTox Chemicals Dashboard
The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard is a part of a suite of databases and web applications developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
CleanScreen
ChemFORWARD is a leader in creating broad access to chemical hazard assessments and safer alternatives. Formulation Ingredient Intelligence Reports (FIIRs) are specifically designed for formulators of cleaners and degreasers to quickly screen, optimize, and pre-qualify their products for certification.
ChemFORWARD leverages a shared, globally harmonized repository of chemical hazard assessments (CHAs), to quickly and cost-effectively provide an assessment of a formulation and suggest safer alternatives where needed.
ChemFORWARD Chemical Hazard Data Trust
Managed by ChemFORWARD, the data trust is designed to simplify access to chemical hazard data from dozens of credible sources, curate, maintain and continuously improve the data, and harmonize the information for actionable decision support that will accelerate the global transition to safer chemistry.
The data trust is populated and continually updated by licensed toxicologists using a comprehensive, globally accepted methodology. Each CHA is peer reviewed by independent toxicologists before being posted.
Green Chemistry and Engineering Learning Platform (GChELP)
A range of free, shareable, and interactive educational and training materials created to promote the uptake of green and sustainable methodologies in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. More than thirty multimedia modules cover topics in six core skill areas: Foundations of Green Chemistry and Engineering, Guides and Metrics, Solvents, Synthetic Toolbox, Process Design, and Life Cycle Impacts.
Greener Synthesis Tools Poster: Heterogeneous Catalysis
This poster highlights the background, history, and applications of heterogeneous catalysis.
Made by Evan Chen, Renata Bence and Luis López Rojas for the 2024 ACS GCI Green and Sustainable Chemistry Summer School.
Practical Green Chemistry Tools and Techniques for Research & Development Scientists
This free workshop offered at the ACS Spring 2024 meeting in New Orleans will equip industry-based R&D chemists and engineers, as well as graduate students, with practical green chemistry tools, methods, and metrics. The content of this workshop will cover green chemistry basics through to the most recent innovative tools and metrics widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. The workshop will be tailored toward scientists and engineers working in batch chemical operations in common use within the pharma industry, but the tools may be applied to other allied chemical industries (e.g.
