Abstract

Green chemistry is an essential part of the organic synthesis chemistry and plays a principal role in saving the environment from harmful and toxic catalysts. Fruit juice catalyzed chemistry is a vital part of green chemistry in which lemon juice plays a potential role in various organic transformations. This review article summarizes (from 2011-2020) the application and importance of lemon juice in synthetic organic transformation as well as synthesis of various type of nanoparticles and catalysts. This review article can help the researchers to develop the route for the synthesis of various scaffolds, small molecules, nanoparticles and catalysts under economical and environment friendly condition.

Keywords: Lemon juice, organic transformation, nanoparticles, biocatalyst, recyclable, lead compound.
