Chemists have discovered an inexpensive, clean and quick way to prepare amines -- nitrogen-containing organic compounds derived from ammonia that have wide industrial applications such as solvents, ...

Researchers have helped minimize the cost of an important class of chemical transformations: converting nitriles into primary amines. Their experimental protocol uses a cheap nickel catalyst instead ...

Chemists use alkylated amines to build plastics, pharmaceuticals, and more. Unfortunately, making these important building blocks on a large scale is energy intensive and relies on nonrenewable ...

A research team from Prof. Benjamin List's department at the Max Planck Institut für Kohlenforschung has solved a long-elusive riddle of chemistry: the synthesis of stable, open-chain amines that ...

Mick Potenza, DuPont nutrition and health polymer additives account manager, told PlasticsToday at booth (#35013) that brand owners are always looking for ways to improve all aspects of product safety ...

Researchers have found a way to convert discarded nitrile rubber gloves into a material capable of capturing carbon dioxide, according to a study published in the journal Chem by Cell Press. The ...

RIVERSIDE, Calif. – Chemists at UC Riverside have discovered an inexpensive, clean and quick way to prepare amines – nitrogen-containing organic compounds derived from ammonia that have wide ...
