Abstract In this article, we aim to provide a broad overview of the development background and history of green chemistry. More specifically, we emphatically elaborate the basic principles of green chemical reaction and the progresses of green chemistry in the fields of atom economy, green raw materials, green catalysts, green solvents, and green chemical products. We hope to promote the understanding and cognition of society and public about green chemistry through our introduction in this review.
