Mechanochemical synthesis harnesses mechanical energy to drive chemical transformations under solvent‐minimised or solvent-free conditions. This approach, frequently executed by ball milling or liquid ...

Since our research focus for years has been on bio- and chemocatalytic synthesis in water, I read with great interest “Some Organic Chemists Want to Turn on the Tap of a Familiar Solvent” (C&EN, July ...

The reaction generates amino acids and nucleic acids, the building blocks of proteins and DNA. Four billion years ago, the Earth looked very different than it does today, devoid of life and covered by ...

Chemists who discovered a new technique for measuring complex reactive processes at the interface of liquids, solids and gases have received the 2023 Michigan Technological University Bhakta Rath ...

A ring of beads connected to tentacles A modeling study shows how chemical reactions can stimulate motion in simple systems, like the structure here—made of enzyme coated beads connected to ...

Pioneering Research in Advanced Materials We’re seeing some really cool stuff happening where quantum science meets materials ...

This year's Nobel Prize in Chemistry is a little unusual in that it recognizes three things: a conceptual approach to building complicated molecules, a chemical reaction that exemplifies that concept, ...

Calcium carbonate is a chemical found in eggshells, seashells, and many other materials. Observe how calcium carbonate reacts with common liquids. A Plaster Master or a Plaster Disaster Plaster is ...

Computational Chemistry is the study of complex chemical problems using a combination of computer simulations, chemistry theory and information science. Also called cheminformatics, this field enables ...
