Sunlight-powered chemistry reduces hazardous oxidant risk

Researchers at the University of Osaka developed a light-driven method for synthesizing Davis reagents that generates the hazardous oxidant mCPBA only on demand and consumes it immediately. Kinetic analysis showed no detectable ...

Neutral catalysts achieve chalcogen-bonding asymmetry

Chemists have demonstrated that neutral chalcogen-bond donors can induce asymmetry in chemical reactions, addressing a challenge that has limited the development of chalcogen-bonding catalysis.

Biosensor detects nanoplastics in water within minutes

The growing presence of nanoplastics in the environment has highlighted the need for simpler detection methods, leading researchers at Science Tokyo to develop a rapid biosensor for detecting polystyrene nanoparticles in ...
