Most of the drugs, plastics, and industrial materials widely used today are produced through chemical reactions. In general, most high-performance and sophisticated substances have complex structures, ...

Yale scientists have taken a critical next step in creating a scalable process to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and “recirculate” it as a renewable fuel. In a new study published in the ...

A chain of chemical reactions being developed by researchers at Shizuoka University in Japan could directly pull CO 2 from the emissions of fossil-fuel-fired power plants, converting it into useful, ...

New research represents a notable step forward in designing enzymes from scratch. With their approach, the authors designed an enzyme that uses a covalent intermediate to catalyze a two-step reaction, ...

A single cerium catalyst has been shown to drive two distinct reactions in one pot, enabling efficient, redox-adaptive chemical synthesis and paving the way for greener, tandem manufacturing processes ...

Scientists have taken a critical next step in creating a scalable process to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and 'recirculate' it as a renewable fuel. Chemists now describe their latest ...
