Organocatalysts consisting of organic compounds without metal elements are receiving much attention as next generation catalysts in the hope of reducing environmental burden and coping with exhaustion ...

The Clarke number of fluorine is about 0.03%, which is about half of that of sulfur, one-sixth of that of chlorine and almost equal to that of nitrogen and rubidium. This suggests that fluorine should ...

Aliphatic acids—hydrocarbon chains with a carboxylic acid on one end—are everywhere. But unfortunately, they’re not much use to synthetic chemists. The saturated chain has only two carbon atoms that ...

The work was aimed at the prediction of the vaporization enthalpies of alkylaromatic compounds and their derivatives. This is a development of the recently proposed system of methods for evaluation of ...

Enhanced anaerobic bioremediation (EAB) is the newest technology in our continuously evolving biological treatment for chlorinated solvent contaminated groundwater. Developments in our understanding ...
