Ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) is a linchpin of lithium-ion battery electrolytes, making up 30–35% of their composition due to its unique balance of solubility, safety, and stability. As global demand ...

Cationic organic intermediates participate in a wide variety of useful synthetic transformations, but their high reactivity can render selectivity in competing pathways difficult to control. Here, we ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a novel electrochemical system that converts carbon dioxide (CO₂), a major ...

The electroreduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable chemicals and fuels typically operates under alkaline or neutral ...

An inexpensive manganese compound solves a common problem for catalysts—the tendency of many to be highly reactive or selective but not both. The manganese catalyst can aminate strong C–H bonds but ...

In summary, the acid-catalyzed transesterification mechanism involves the following steps: Protonation of the carbonyl oxygen ...

Researchers at the University of California, Riverside have discovered the world's strongest acid. Remarkably it is also the gentlest acid. This non-toxic and non-corrosive acid may have a role in ...
