Green Chemistry - Principle 2

The video discusses the use of less hazardous chemicals in research, focusing on the importance of chirality in drug development. Chiral chemicals are crucial as they minimize unwanted side effects by ensuring the correct molecular shape, similar to how a glove fits a specific hand. The video emphasizes the goal of producing 100% chiral drugs to adhere to green chemistry principles. Additionally, it highlights the significance of tweaking drug designs to target specific organs, thereby reducing side effects.
