A new study has been regarded as "very important" because it offers a new framework for understanding reactions in organic chemistry. In their study, the team addressed the cooperative role of ...

Electrons can spur the chemical reaction between an acid and a base, according to new results in Science, a finding that may help researchers precisely control reactions in areas from biology to ...

A high-yield, one-pot, scalable reaction facilitates the production of biologically relevant amide compounds using less reactive nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds and carboxylic acid without ...

The tragic accident, when a restaurant manager in Massachusetts died, was the result of a simple chemical reaction called neutralization. That's when an acid and a base are combined. Unfortunately in ...

James Mitchell Crow explains how an unexpected discovery in main group chemistry inspired two decades of chemical creativity, ...

Acids are chemical compounds that will ionize in water having a hydrogen ion (H+) active greater than that of water. Acids can give up a proton and they are of two types, it is strong acids and weak ...

Chemistry of Renewable Energy invites nonscience majors to engage in a topic that profoundly impacts our society. In this course, renewable (and non-renewable) energy sources are investigated from a ...
