This comprehensive article deeply analyzes the production of organic reagents from renewable raw materials, focusing on technological, environmental, and economic aspects. It emphasizes the significance of renewable feedstocks such as lignocellulosic biomass, plant oils, and algae as sustainable alternatives to fossil-based sources. Moreover, it examines recent innovations, industrial applications, and future directions in green chemistry.
