🌱 Green Chemistry Principle 8: Reduce Derivatives

“We used to transform things step by step, by making a derivative and then transforming that into what we want. As productive as that was, it was wasteful. We avoid this through elegant chemistry—avoiding derivatives and using biobased feedstocks that already have so much of that functionality built in.” – Paul Anastas, Co-founder of P2 Science and Yale Professor

At P2 Science, this principle is put into practice through intentional process design. Every P2 process is developed with the commitment that no unnecessary derivative will ever be introduced. By starting with naturally functional, renewable feedstocks, P2’s chemists let nature’s design do the work—reducing steps, minimizing waste, and creating advanced naturals that are both efficient and elegant.
