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 ...

Computational Chemistry is the study of complex chemical problems using a combination of computer simulations, chemistry theory and information science. Also called cheminformatics, this field enables ...

After years of research, international experts have confirmed the discovery of a new chemical reaction, launching new opportunities for rapid advances in a range of fields—from recycled plastics to ...

I read with considerable interest the editorial “ ‘No Excuses’ for the Future of Green Chemistry” (C&EN, June 2/9, 2025, page 2) and the first installment of the new column on green chemistry, “The ...

To support chemical reaction discovery, a research team from WPI-ICReDD, led by Professor Masaharu Yoshioka and Assistant Professor Pinku Nath, have developed ChemOntology—a new artificial ...

Click reactions—the subject of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Chemistry—come in many forms, but they all share a few key features. Namely, click chemistry forges new chemical bonds quickly, selectively, and ...

Traditionally, chemical reactions have been described as one-line “equations” in which substrates, say A and B, convert purposefully but rigidly into a desired product, say C. Naturally, it has been ...
