Solvents represent one of the major contributions to the environmental impact of fine‐chemical synthesis. As a result, the use of environmentally friendly solvents in widely employed reactions is a challenge of vast real interest in contemporary organic chemistry. Within this Review, a great variety of examples showing how cyclopentyl methyl ether has been established as particularly useful for this purpose are reported. Indeed, its low toxicity, high boiling point, low melting point, hydrophobicity, chemical stability towards a wide range of conditions, exceptional stability towards the abstraction of hydrogen atoms, relatively low latent heat of vaporization, and the ease with which it can be recovered and recycled enable its successful employment as a solvent in a wide range of synthetic applications, including organometallic chemistry, catalysis, biphasic reactions, oxidations, and radical reactions.

Na and Na/K alloys in the liquid phase can be absorbed into amorphous silica gel at loadings up to 40 wt%. Further heating of these so-called stage 0 materials at 150 or 400 °C furnishes stage I and stage II materials, respectively, as free-flowing powders that can be handled under much safer conditions than the corresponding starting materials. Stage I Na and Na2K possess valuable reducing properties and they have found a variety of low impact applications in organic synthesis, including, e.g., the reductive deprotection of several functional groups, the development of safer protocols to operate the Bouveault–Blanc and the Birch reductions, and a new and particularly efficient approach to the Grignard and Darzens reactions. 1 Introduction 2 Reductive Deprotection Procedures 3 Bouveault–Blanc Reduction of Esters 4 Ammonia-Free Birch Reductions 5 Synthesis of Alkyldiaryl- and Dialkylarylphosphines 6 C–C Bond Forming Reactions 7 Further Applications 8 Conclusion
