摘要

在过去的三十年里,绿色化学的概念主导了有环保意识的化学家的想象。美国环境保护署(Environmental Protection Agency)的学者们在上世纪90年代提出的概念框架,如今构成了旨在将化学转变为一门可持续科学的一系列思想的核心。然而,在绿色化学的阴影下,一个更广泛的,即使不那么流行的,可持续化学的概念开始形成。最初,它要么松散地与绿色化学联系在一起,要么被定义为一种独特但总体上不同的方法。在这种模糊的形式下,它在20世纪90年代末得到了经合组织和IUPAC等组织的认可。然而,直到2010年代,它才巩固为一个独立的、更具包容性和更全面的传统,可以通过提供后者所缺乏的见解来与绿色化学竞争。可持续化学寻求超越对化学合成的狭隘关注,并拥抱更全面的化学活动观点,包括社会责任和可持续的商业模式。由于一个有趣的历史巧合,正是在德国,可持续化学扎根并第一次制度化。正是由于德国的例外论和德国学者不愿意接受源自美国的“绿色”术语,可持续化学的概念才能在德语世界安全地成熟和发展,然后才达到高度的形式化,有了专门的期刊、创始文章和纲领性原则,有望在未来几年改变整个化工企业。

An unlikely bifurcation: history of sustainable (but not Green) chemistry

The concept of green chemistry dominated the imagination of environmentally-minded chemists over the last thirty years. The conceptual frameworks laid by the American Environmental Protection Agency scholars in the 1990s constitute today the core of a line of thinking aimed at transforming chemistry into a sustainable science. And yet, in the shadow of green chemistry, a broader, even if less popular, concept of sustainable chemistry started taking shape. Initially, it was either loosely associated with green chemistry or left undefined as a distinct but generaly different approach. In such a vague form, it was endorsed by the organizations such as OECD and the IUPAC in the late 1990s. It was not until the 2010s however, when it solidified as a separate more embracing and more overarching tradition that could compete with green chemistry by offering insights that the latter lacked. Sustainable chemistry seeks to transcend the narrow focus on chemical synthesis and embrace a much more holistic view of chemical activities including social responsibility and sustainable business models. Due to an interesting historical coincidence, it was in Germany where sustainable chemistry took roots and became institutionalized for the first time. It was thanks to German exceptionalism and the unwillingness of German scholars to embrace the “green” terminology originating from the US, the concept of sustainable chemistry could safely mature and develop in the German-speaking world, before reaching a high degree of formalization with dedicated journals, founding articles, and programmatic principles aspiring to transform the entire chemical enterprise in the years to come.

期刊介绍: Foundations of Chemistry is an international journal which seeks to provide an interdisciplinary forum where chemists, biochemists, philosophers, historians, educators and sociologists with an interest in foundational issues can discuss conceptual and fundamental issues which relate to the `central science'' of chemistry. Such issues include the autonomous role of chemistry between physics and biology and the question of the reduction of chemistry to quantum mechanics. The journal will publish peer-reviewed academic articles on a wide range of subdisciplines, among others: chemical models, chemical language, metaphors, and theoretical terms; chemical evolution and artificial self-replication; industrial application, environmental concern, and the social and ethical aspects of chemistry''s professionalism; the nature of modeling and the role of instrumentation in chemistry; institutional studies and the nature of explanation in the chemical sciences; theoretical chemistry, molecular structure and chaos; the issue of realism; molecular biology, bio-inorganic chemistry; historical studies on ancient chemistry, medieval chemistry and alchemy; philosophical and historical articles; and material of a didactic nature relating to all topics in the chemical sciences. Foundations of Chemistry plans to feature special issues devoted to particular themes, and will contain book reviews and discussion notes. Audience: chemists, biochemists, philosophers, historians, chemical educators, sociologists, and other scientists with an interest in the foundational issues of science.
