Carboxylic acids are ubiquitous in bioactive organic molecules and readily available chemical building blocks. Carboxylic ...

During photosynthesis, an enzyme called rubisco catalyzes a key reaction—the incorporation of carbon dioxide into organic ...

THE chemist in industry is far more interested in the reaction, mechanism and technique of the processes employed than in the countless new carbon compounds which are synthesised; hence a textbook ...

Organic chemistry is the study of the synthesis, structure, reactivity and properties of the diverse group of chemical compounds primarily constructed of carbon. All life on earth is carbon-based ...

Researchers at the ICN2 and the UAB have developed a novel strategy to obtain different types of organic molecules by ...

An effective binary catalytic system enables the synthesis of oxa- and aza-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes from cyclic γ-epoxy-alcohols. A combination of an aminotriphenolate Al(III) complex and a bromide salt ...

Chiral amine synthesis remains a significant challenge in accelerating the design cycle of drug discovery programs. A zirconium hydride, due to its high oxophilicity and lower reactivity, gave highly ...

The fundamental understanding and exploitation of radical processes play a key role in the research of the group at the WWU Münster. The research program is devoted to the fields of catalysis, organic ...
