A new three-way bond-breaking and making mechanism makes the synthesis of five-membered rings easier than before.

Understanding the delicate balance between nucleophilicity and electrophilicity is fundamental to rationalising reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry. Nucleophilic reactivity describes a molecule’s ...

Master acid–base concepts, intermediates, and isomerism to make Organic Chemistry a high-scoring, logic-driven section in JEE ...

In numerous scientific fields, high-throughput experimentation methods combined with artificial intelligence (AI) show great ...

One of the important objectives of green chemistry is the use of eco-friendly solvents and catalysts to perform chemical reactions. Catalysts such as organocatalysts, enzymes, and ionic liquids have ...

This module teaches fundamentals of pericyclic reactions using examples of biocatalysis, biomimetic catalysis, and natural product total synthesis. After completion, students should be able to ...

Water is called the universal solvent for its ability to dissolve a broad range of chemicals. But you wouldn’t know that from spending time in chemistry labs, where the solvents of choice are almost ...

Using muon spin rotation spectroscopy, researchers from Japan and Canada successfully captured the rapid conversion of an ...
