Scientists at the Institute of Science Tokyo (Science Tokyo) have successfully realized the highly selective asymmetric 1,6 ...

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 ...

The Clarke number of fluorine is about 0.03%, which is about half of that of sulfur, one-sixth of that of chlorine and almost equal to that of nitrogen and rubidium. This suggests that fluorine should ...

Catalysis: They are essential in catalysis, particularly in processes like hydrogenation, hydroformylation, and polymerisation. For example, Ziegler-Natta catalysts, which are organometallic compounds ...

Enhanced anaerobic bioremediation (EAB) is the newest technology in our continuously evolving biological treatment for chlorinated solvent contaminated groundwater. Developments in our understanding ...

Aliphatic acids—hydrocarbon chains with a carboxylic acid on one end—are everywhere. But unfortunately, they’re not much use to synthetic chemists. The saturated chain has only two carbon atoms that ...
