Default Using a cell's "color" to place a value in a cell

I have a groupd of cells. I would like the value of a cell reflected in
another cell based on a cell's highlighted color.

Col1 Col2 Col3
45 Yellow if Col2 is green then Col1
65 Green if Col2 is green then Col1

Is there a way for a formula in Col3 to test Col2 and if it meets the test
of color green, display the value of Col1 in Col3?

Thanks for any help.
