Chemists have created another catalyst that can selectively trigger a carbon-hydrogen bond, part of a continuing strategy to transform the field of organic synthesis and pave the way for new chemical space.
A new study from the University of Michigan Life Sciences Institute is constructing a bridge from nature's chemistry to greener, more efficient artificial chemistry.
Oil and water cannot mix together and this continues to remain that way. The phenomenon is so popular that it has become a common expression for describing any two objects that do not go well together.
Chemistry is an intricate web of atoms. Minor shifts in position and shuffles of electrons break and re-form chemical bonds as participants change partners. Catalysts are like molecular intermediaries that make it easier for sometimes-unwilling partners to interact.
Researchers from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) and Evonik Performance Materials GmbH have been successful in designing an ultra-modern and novel electro-organic synthesis as part of the cooperative EPSYLON research project funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
A KAUST team has discovered that thin films used in solar cells are more effective when simple chemicals called glycol ethers are incorporated to the film-forming mix.
Physicists from UCLA have invented a new technique for synthesizing a distinctive new molecule that can, in due course, be used in fields such as food science, medicine, and others. The study also demonstrates the technique for analyzing chemical reactions on a microscopic-scale by applying tools of physics, and has been published in the Science journal.
Catalysts can be defined as agents that initiate chemical reactions, speed them up or considerably increase the yield of the desired product.
For the first time, researchers at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory and the University of Maryland (UMD) have developed a unique water-based lithium-ion battery that does not explode.
Chemists do not have to chase rainbows anymore as a new technique to craft a spectrum of glowing dyes has been discovered.
