The heterogeneous reaction of thiols with lead oxide to form insoluble lead thiolates is the basis for a new process that separates thiols from a hydrocarbon stream. The process uses inexpensive ...

Methanol made from CO2 in the air can be transformed into carbon neutral fuels. A new mechanistic understanding aids development of this sustainable alternative. Methanol, produced from carbon dioxide ...

As a significant reaction in heterogeneous catalysis, methanol-to-hydrocarbon (MTH) conversion supplies a sustainable way for the production of important platform chemicals, e.g., olefins, gasoline ...

The research team has successfully achieved the following breakthroughs in the well-known anthracene [4+4] photocycloaddition ...

The petrochemical industry turns oil and gas into precursors used to synthesize lubricants and other critical products. Chemists show that bacteria can be metabolically engineered to generate similar ...

Anthracene—a hydrocarbon known for its strong luminescence and high photo-reactivity—has long been considered one of the most iconic and widely ...

Note: This video is designed to help the teacher better understand the lesson and is NOT intended to be shown to students. It includes observations and conclusions that students are meant to make on ...

Methanol, produced from carbon dioxide in the air, can be used to make carbon neutral fuels. But to do this, the mechanism by which methanol is turned into liquid hydrocarbons must be better ...
