This ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering Virtual Special Issue highlights recent contributions to the journal ton advances in the field of Advanced Reaction Media. Solvents are ubiquitous across many facets of life, but the environmental impact of many favorite classical solvents is non-sustainable. This collection explores vibrant research topics spanning supercritical fluids, deep eutectics, ionic liquids and aqueous systems. Hopefully, this VSI will inspire researchers in the field of sustainable chemistry and engineering to consider more benign alternatives to the classical solvents and volatile organic compounds when designing sustainable processes to underpin the chemical industry for the future.
