Scientists at the EU4MOFs research network have taken the initiative to standardize the reporting of synthetic procedures and material properties of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). To this aim, they ...

Diastereomers are structurally identical molecules that are not mirror images of each other. Diastereomers can have different ...

Highly reactive organometallic reagents, like organolithiums (molecules with a carbon–lithium bond) are essential reagents in organic synthesis because of their applications from polymer synthesis to ...

Diastereomers are molecules with identical structures that are not mirror images of each other, described as anti or syn for molecules without rings. Researchers at the University of Osaka developed a ...

A team has shown that artificial photosynthesis is feasible using organic materials. Using the technique, they successfully synthesized useful organic compounds, including pharmaceutical materials, ...

Researchers at Nagoya University have created a more efficient iron-based photocatalyst that could reduce the need for rare and expensive metals in advanced chemistry. Unlike earlier designs, the new ...

Reactive intermediates, such as carbocations, carbanions, radicals, carbenes, nitrenes, and organometallic species, play a crucial role in organic syntheses, yet their transient nature makes them ...

This simple electrochemical device captures carbon dioxide from simulated industrial exhaust thanks to an electrode made of a ...

What are Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs)? Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) are composed of light elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon, connected by strong covalent bonds, providing ...
