Most of the drugs, plastics, and industrial materials widely used today are produced through chemical reactions. In general, most high-performance and sophisticated substances have complex structures, ...

Even though amide bonds are everywhere—they hold proteins together and are essential components in many drugs—forging this molecular motif in a reaction flask can be challenging. For example, making ...

A single cerium catalyst has been shown to drive two distinct reactions in one pot, enabling efficient, redox-adaptive chemical synthesis and paving the way for greener, tandem manufacturing processes ...
