Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have reported a breakthrough in nickel catalysis that harnesses a ...

Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...

Controlling the products and byproducts of a chemical reaction is called selectivity. Scientists are trying to find better ways to control selectivity in industrial chemical reactions to improve the ...

Researchers developed a way to quickly calculate the transition state structure of a chemical reaction, using machine-learning models. During a chemical reaction, molecules gain energy until they ...

Speeding up chemical reactions is key to improving industrial processes or mitigating unwanted or harmful waste. Realizing these improvements requires that chemists design around documented reaction ...
