Selecting greener solvents during experiment design is imperative for greener chemistry. While many solvent selection guides are currently used in the pharmaceutical industry, these are often paper-based guides which can make it difficult to identify and compare specific solvents. This work presents a stand-alone version of the solvent flashcards that were developed as part of the AI4Green electronic laboratory notebook. The functionality is an intuitive and interactive interface for the visualisation of data from CHEM21, a pharmaceutical solvent selection guide that categorises solvents according to “greenness”. This open-source software is written in Python, JavaScript, HTML and CSS and allows users to directly contrast and compare specific solvents by generating colour-coded flashcards. It can be installed locally using pip, or alternatively the source code is available on GitHub: https://github.com/AI4Green/solvent_flashcards . The documentation can also be found on GitHub or on the corresponding Python Package Index webpage: https://pypi.org/project/solvent-guide/ . This simple and easy-to-use digital tool provides a visualisation of solvent greenness data through a novel intuitive interface and encourages green chemistry. It offers numerous advantages over traditional solvent selection guides, allowing users to directly customise the solvent list and generate side-by-side comparisons of only the most important solvents. The release as a standalone package will maximise the benefit of this software.

溶剂抽认卡：可持续化学的可视化工具


在实验设计过程中选择更环保的溶剂对于绿色化学至关重要。虽然制药行业目前使用许多溶剂选择指南，但这些指南通常是纸质指南，这使得识别和比较特定溶剂变得困难。这项工作提出了溶剂抽认卡的独立版本，该溶剂抽认卡是作为 AI4Green 电子实验室笔记本的一部分而开发的。该功能是一个直观的交互式界面，用于可视化 CHEM21 中的数据，CHEM21 是一种药物溶剂选择指南，根据“绿色度”对溶剂进行分类。该开源软件采用 Python、JavaScript、HTML 和 CSS 编写，允许用户通过生成颜色编码抽认卡来直接对比和比较特定溶剂。它可以使用 pip 在本地安装，也可以在 GitHub 上获取源代码：https://github.com/AI4Green/solvent_flashcards。该文档还可以在 GitHub 或相应的 Python 包索引网页上找到：https://pypi.org/project/solvent-guide/。这种简单易用的数字工具通过新颖直观的界面提供溶剂绿色度数据的可视化，并鼓励绿色化学。与传统溶剂选择指南相比，它具有许多优势，允许用户直接定制溶剂列表并仅对最重要的溶剂进行并排比较。作为独立软件包的发布将最大限度地发挥该软件的优势。
