Graphical abstract. Credit: The Journal of Physical Chemistry A (2023). DOI: 10.1021/acs.jpca.2c07955Scientists from Universidad de Santiago de Chile and the University of Notre Dame have developed a machine learning-based approach to recognize organic compounds by their refractive index at a particular optical wavelength. This method has the potential to automate chemical analysis and make it more...
Two projections of the molecular structure of 1. Credit: Molecules (2022). DOI: 10.3390/molecules27196205RUDN University chemists have produced new copper-containing metallasilsesquioxane frameworks. A few of them have proven to be effective catalysts for the oxidation of hydrocarbons. The results are published in Molecules.What are SilsesquioxanesSilsesquioxanes are a enormous team of organosilicon compounds. They are formed of a...
Skoltech scientists and their colleagues have synthesized a brand-new conjugated polymer for organic electronic devices through two different chemical reactions and shown the influence of both methods on its efficiency in organic and perovskite solar batteries. The paper was published in the journal Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics.As the world attempts to shift to clean...
Sustainability is a crucial concern in business and industry these days. Many firms acknowledge the demand to find the very best possible climate-neutral options for producing their products and decreasing contaminants. This indicates they are searching for manufacturing alternatives that do not call for using fossil resources. Great potential in this regard is seen...
The carbon-hydrogen bonds in alkanes - especially those at the ends of the molecules, where each carbon has three hydrogen atoms connected to it-- are tough to "crack" if you want to change the hydrogen atoms with other atoms. Methane (CH4) and ethane (CH3CH3) are composed, specifically, of such tightly adhered hydrogen atoms. In...
An international collaboration of researchers has taken a considerable step toward the discovery of a nearly "green" zero-net-carbon technology that will effectively transform carbon dioxide, a significant greenhouse gas, along with hydrogen right into ethanol, which is useful as a fuel and also has lots of other chemical applications. The research study reports a...
Chemistry is the study of chain reactions taking place in between the various elements and also substances. This is among the significant branches of the Scientific research stream after Physics and also Biology. Whatever around us uses up space, and mass is referred to as 'matter,' which is mainly constructed from the small bits...
