Closed-vessel microwave synthesis is a highly effective technique for synthetic processes today. Since the technology is not restricted to a solvent boiling point, it can be applied to a much greater ...

David Gunn, Applications Manager at Milestone Inc., talks to AZoM about Parallel Microwave-Enhanced Synthesis for Reaction Screening. You have a range of products within your Microwave Synthesis ...

How is it that a complex organism evolves from a pile of dead matter? How can lifeless materials become organic molecules that are the bricks of animals and plants? Scientists have been trying to ...

In recent years, microwave technology has revolutionised laboratory workflows across a broad spectrum of scientific ...

Thalidomide, a drug once used to alleviate morning sickness in pregnant women, exhibits distinct properties due to its optical isomers in the body: one isomer has a sedative effect, while the other ...

Catalysis: They are essential in catalysis, particularly in processes like hydrogenation, hydroformylation, and polymerisation. For example, Ziegler-Natta catalysts, which are organometallic compounds ...

Chemists have coaxed vinyl cations to insert into C–H bonds of alkanes and arenes. In doing so, they’ve shown that this classic carbocation is capable of much more than previously thought. Although ...
