For example, conducting a reaction in water may not necessarily be an improvement if several volumes of an organic solvent are needed to extract purify the product. One could even argue that water can be problematic because its high boiling point makes recycling energy intensive, but we do not know these details without consciously thinking about them. A recent perspective highlights the need to explicitly include the assessment of sustainability using Green Chemistry metrics.
