With each airplane traveling thousands of miles per day on average, the amount of jet fuel produced has to keep up.

New Delhi: Severe wintertime ozone (O3) pollution may be driven by alkene emissions from local petrochemical industries, and can be detrimental to human health, finds a study. Researchers from the ...

Two new catalytic methods offer ways to tackle longstanding challenges in alkene synthesis. Alkenes are essential chemical building blocks used in the manufacture of everyday items such as plastics ...

The functionality of these devices was demonstrated by performing gold nanoparticles (inorganic) and alkene (organic) synthesis. The synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and alkene solution were ...

Despite significant advances in alkene production, a simple and flexible way to transform a wide variety of starting materials into alkenes has remained a major challenge. This difficulty arises ...

Abstract: New alkene-based anti-relaxation coating of alkali metal vapor cell demonstrated up to 10 times longer relaxation time then the same time for classical alkane-based coating. In this paper ...

A team at UNC-Chapel Hill has developed a new process for synthesizing amides in a 100% atom-economical, sustainable fashion using Earth-abundant, environmentally friendly cobalt. UNC-Chapel Hill ...

In 2017, the Giri lab reported a novel method to form two carbon-carbon bonds off an alkene in a single step, known as alkene dicarbofunctionalization, utilizing a removable coordinating group to ward ...

During the process, atomic oxygen produced from the CO 2, reacts with the alkene substrates to form epoxides. The oxygen is reactive enough that the reactions can take place under mild temperature and ...
