A reaction scheme showing an aryl aldehyde and a primary amine coming together on the left, with an arrow labeled with ...

Researchers have resolved a problem that has limited the environmental sustainability of peracid synthesis. By judicious choice of the solvent and light input, approximately room-temperature ...

Few functional groups are as popular in synthesis as the carbonyl group. Composed of an oxygen molecule doubly bonded to carbon, the carbonyl welcomes reaction with all types of nucleophiles.

Rhodium is one of the most powerful catalytic metals known to chemistry. Small amounts of it can drive reactions that produce ...

Strecker synthesis is one of several means of producing α-amino acids. α-amino acids are molecules, which contain an amine and carboxylic group that are separated by a single carbon (the α-carbon).
