Efficient reactions in aqueous organic chemistry do not require soluble reactants, as had been thought. A newly developed ‘on-water’ protocol is characterized by short reaction times, and the products ...

Reactants require a certain amount of energy to react — but what kind of energy? Chemical dynamics simulations predict that vibrationally exciting reactants can promote 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition ...

Sometimes, all that's needed to overturn generations of conventional chemical wisdom is a vigorous stir. With the firmly entrenched notion that oil and water don't mix, chemists frequently approach ...

Researchers developed a machine-learning model that can predict the structures of transition states of chemical reactions in less than a second, with high accuracy. Their model could make it easier ...

Chemical reactions occur when elements or compounds combine and create new compounds. Elements are substances that contain only one type of atom and are represented by unique symbols on the periodic ...
