Chemists from ETH Zurich have found a way to produce poorly soluble proteins by caging a uniquely reactive boron compound. This method opens up new possibilities for the synthesis of tailored protein ...

Mechanochemical synthesis harnesses mechanical energy to drive chemical transformations under solvent‐minimised or solvent-free conditions. This approach, frequently executed by ball milling or liquid ...

Researchers develop a one pot process to transform aromatic ketones to esters, offering advancements in pharmaceutical synthesis and materials science. Aromatic ketones have traditionally been ...

Researchers at Nagoya University have created a more efficient iron-based photocatalyst that could reduce the need for rare and expensive metals in advanced chemistry. Unlike earlier designs, the new ...

The synthesis of methanol from carbon dioxide can be dramatically improved by switching the catalyst support from zirconia to ...

Fortunately, these giant rings are about to become a lot easier to access. Helma Wennemers and her team at ETH Zurich have ...

Chinese researchers have developed a photocatalytic membrane reactor that dramatically improves the synthesis of imines—a ...

Process development is key to identifying the optimal parameters used for synthesis, manufacturing, and stability testing. It is also key to generating the data required for the filing processes of ...
