Organocatalysts consisting of organic compounds without metal elements are receiving much attention as next generation catalysts in the hope of reducing environmental burden and coping with exhaustion ...
A research team has developed a reaction for creating functionalized ketones. Using an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) organocatalyst, with no need for metals or light irradiation, an acyl and an alkyl ...
Click reactions—the subject of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Chemistry—come in many forms, but they all share a few key features. Namely, click chemistry forges new chemical bonds quickly, selectively, and ...
Crafts” reaction, because its selectivity is opposite to that of the nearly 150-year-old aromatic substitution reaction, which favo ...
Alcohols play a pivotal role in organic synthesis because they are ubiquitous and can be used in a variety of well-established transformations. However, in C-C bond formation reactions, despite being ...
A team of chemists has demonstrated a way to form sulfur-sulfur bonds at room temperature without any external catalyst, ...
The content details various categories of AOPs—including ozone-based, radiation-driven, catalytic, and physical methods—highlighting their mechanisms, chemicals involved, ...
A novel treatment for recurrent localized cervical cancer using point-of-care ethyl cellulose ethanol ablation with concurrent cytotoxic therapy. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2021 ASCO ...
To improve water treatment, researchers use modeling to understand how chemical byproducts form during the advanced oxidation process. Synthetical chemicals are ever-present in modern life—in our ...
