Researchers have discovered the mechanism behind a common isomerization reaction, solving a long-standing puzzle in organic chemistry. An international collaboration including scientists at China’s ...
Fluorinated polymers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are interesting materials thanks to their outstanding properties, such as their thermal stability, chemical inertness (to solvents ...
Creating rings, or carbocycles, with a six-carbon skeleton is an elementary exercise for synthetic organic chemists. Ask one how it’s done, and the chemist will inevitably point to the stalwart ...
