While most alkenes are easy to prepare, a specific type with four different parts—called tetrasubstituted alkenes—is much more challenging, but used to make cancer-fighting medicines and ...

2 ways to stick nitrogen into alkenes 2 new methods expand synthetic chemists’ options for cutting double bonds and installing new bonds to nitrogen by Brianna Barbu ...

Chemists have developed a straightforward method to convert common chemicals like carboxylic acids, alcohols, and alkanes directly into valuable alkenes.

The paper discusses how they are continuing to work on expanding the scope of this reaction to every possible class of substrate, and each new reaction reveals more about the field of alkene ...

The aim of the present work is the theoretical study of probably detectable methylamine isotopologues. Monosubstituted isotopologues were detected for many astrophysical molecules such as ...

Due to a lack of time and, thus, an inability to present every possibility in a chemical reaction, organic chemistry professors tend to present each reaction with a single outcome. In practice, this ...

Intramolecular selectivity for the hydrogenation of monosubstituted alkenes also occurs when substrate molecules contain both mono and multiply substituted double bonds. The combination of the ...
