New pharmaceuticals, cleaner fuels, biodegradable plastics: in order to meet society's needs, chemists have to develop new synthesis methods to obtain new products that do not exist in their natural ...

This new cerium-based catalyst interconverts between two oxidation states with distinct chemical properties, enabling two completely different reactions to occur in the same container. Most of the ...

Chemistry is all around us. From the widespread production of global food supplies to the metabolism that fuels the tiniest of microorganisms, everything in our surroundings is produced and controlled ...

Heterocyclic compounds are organic molecules with a ring structure comprising at least two or more elements. In most cases, these rings are composed of carbon atoms along with one or more other ...

Scientists have long considered ketones (a fundamental chemical class) and esters (molecules formed when an acid reacts with an alcohol) to be locked treasure chests of possibilities. Ubiquitous as ...

In the past few years, researchers have turned increasingly to data science techniques to aid problem-solving in organic synthesis. The software adapts key principles of Bayesian Optimization (BO) to ...

As the world moves away from gas towards electricity as a greener power source, the to-do list goes beyond cars. The vast global manufacturing network that makes everything from our batteries to our ...
