A research team has discovered an electrochemical method that allows highly selective para-position single-carbon insertion ...

Kwizera, a 37-year-old gorilla at the Memphis Zoo, died unexpectedly on July 6. Zoo staff attempted to revive her but were ...

Magnetic micropillar arrays, made from magnetic composite materials, can change their shape under a magnetic field. However, ...

Using palladium (Pd) or platinum (Pt) catalysts for propylene electrooxidation offers a sustainable route to producing ...

Prof. Hening Lin brings expertise in enzymes to UChicago, bridging scientists, engineers and doctors to translate research to ...

By putting a carbon atom in place of a core oxygen, chemists constructed an opioid that blocks pain with less respiratory ...

Degradation is a therapeutic strategy that could offer possibilities to get at currently undruggable target proteins. In ...

It is shown that under high fields, molecular straining becomes significant and that it affects the energy barrier equation for electrical aging of polymers. This implies that at high fields the time ...

Benzylic alcohols represent a privileged structural motif that is ubiquitous in bioactive natural products and pharmaceutical agents. Selective oxidative hydroxylation of benzylic C–H bonds is an ...

Mechanical activation of chemical bonds typically involves the application of external forces, which implies a broad distribution of bond tensions. We demonstrate that controlling the flow profile of ...
