The research team of Xumu Zhang and Genqiang Chen at Southern University of Science and Technology has achieved a new breakthrough in the synthesis and application of benzoxoxetine ligands. They ...

In introductory organic chemistry courses, students learn about reaction mechanisms, often by drawing neat arrows connecting one intermediate state to the next until ending with a final product.

Organic chemistry is often misunderstood as a subject that demands endless memorisation of reactions, reagents, and experimental conditions. Students frequently express their frustration by saying, ...

The Thermo Scientific picoSpin 45 NMR spectrometer is a useful tool for teaching through the aldol condensation reaction. In a number of undergraduate organic teaching programs, probably the first ...

Organic chemistry students and bench chemists alike rely on the Grignard reaction, a relatively simple way to make carbon-carbon bonds. But even though the reaction was first described 120 years ago, ...
