Brookhaven Lab chemist Ping Liu and Stony Brook University graduate student Hong Zhang developed a theoretical framework to predict the behavior of catalysts under reaction conditions. The framework ...

Recently, Prof. Shou-Fei Zhu’s research group at Nankai University reported in CCS Chemistry a highly efficient and selective hydro-silylation reaction of asymmetric internal alkynes with ...

Researchers have developed a new class of redox-switchable molecular mediators that activate halogen bonding to more efficiently and selectively drive carbon-nitrogen bond formation. (Nanowerk News) ...

Chemists describe the key features of a catalyst that determine its selectivity for transforming CO2 and ethane (C2H6) into synthesis gas (useful for generating electricity or making liquid fuels) or, ...

Adiponitrile is kind of a big deal. One of the most produced chemicals worldwide by volume, it’s an important precursor for making the compound nylon 6,6, commonly used in carpeting and textiles. But ...

Triple click chemistry has revolutionized chemical synthesis with its simplicity and efficiency, allowing for the quick and selective assembly of complex molecules. Now, in a recent study, researchers ...

The researchers have developed a technology for synthesizing KA oil (a mixture of cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol), a raw material of nylon, etc., at room temperature and atmospheric pressure by direct ...

DNA, the blueprint of life, is best known for its fundamental role as genetic material—storing and transmitting biological information through the precise sequence of its bases. For decades, this ...
