Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition.

The Diels-Alder reaction is the most iconic organic chemistry reaction. Scientists now report on exactly how this chemical reaction, discovered in 1928, occurs.

When chemists develop new types of reactions, they generate a lot of data on what works and how well, along with what doesn’t work at all. Much of the data are never used, says Abigail G. Doyle ...

In contrast to conventional organic synthesis, mechanochemistry does not use solvents that eventually become industrial wastes. Thus, mechanochemistry is environmentally friendly and enables us to ...
