The field of catalysis, particularly in oxidation reactions, occupies a central role in modern chemistry and industrial processes. These reactions underpin energy conversion, environmental remediation ...

Researchers can make the oxidation reactions used in the synthesis of organic molecules cleaner by hitching photovoltaics to electrochemistry. The idea is simple and yet it has huge implications. To ...

For more than two centuries, fossil fuels have dominated global energy and chemical production, accounting for over 80% of ...

The film discusses various chemical processes, particularly focusing on oxidation and reduction reactions involving elements like hydrogen, oxygen, coke, magnesium, and aluminum. It explains how these ...

An interdisciplinary team presents a new class of chemical compounds that can be reversibly oxidized and reduced. The compounds known as 'pyrazinacenes' are simple, stable compounds that consist of a ...

Scientists have long noted with interest that in one of nature's crucial chemical reactions—the oxygen evolution reaction—it ...

The Fenton reaction is a chemical transition involving hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) and the ferrous (iron) ion, which acts as a catalyst. This process is used to destroy hazardous contaminants in ...

This module covers aldehydes and ketones as the substrates and products of redox reactions. Structure is explained with both Lewis structures and molecular orbitals to discuss mechanisms in the ...

One of the important objectives of green chemistry is the use of eco-friendly solvents and catalysts to perform chemical reactions. Catalysts such as organocatalysts, enzymes, and ionic liquids have ...
