In 1928, chemists Otto Diels and Kurt Alder first documented diene synthesis, a chemical reaction important for synthesizing many polymers, alkaloids and steroids. Their work on this mechanism, which ...

Chemists at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a methodology to enable coupling reactions for the ...

Scientists have illuminated the mechanism at the heart of one of the most useful processes in modern chemistry. A reaction that is robust and easy to perform, it is widely employed to synthesize new ...

Chemists often use computational methods to predict reaction pathways and energies, but some researchers question their usefulness because the models sometimes produce highly variable, head-scratching ...

Semiconductors -- and our mastery of them -- have enabled us to develop the technology that underpins our modern society. These devices are responsible for a wide range of electronics, including ...

Here’s a fully detailed, chapter-wise strategy and focus areas to help you master all Physical, Organic and Inorganic ...
