Researchers have resolved a problem that has limited the environmental sustainability of peracid synthesis. By judicious choice of the solvent and light input, approximately room-temperature ...

Terephthalic aldehyde — a key organic chemical intermediate — has become increasingly vital across high-precision synthesis ...

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 ...

An electrogenerated acid can catalyze the synthesis and simultaneous immobilization of imine-based covalent organic frameworks (COFs) onto electrodes, report scientists. Starting with amine and ...

Converting a mixture of mirror-image forms, or stereoisomers, of a molecule into a single isomer is a big deal in making pharmaceuticals, because usually only one isomer is useful as a drug. But ...

Histones are crosslinked with DNA (histone-DPC) following formaldehyde exposure, leading to the malfunction of cellular processes such as transcription. A team of researchers at Nagoya University in ...
