Researchers from National Taiwan University and Chulalongkorn University developed a copper-based catalyst system that ...

For the first time, chemists at the University of Bonn and Lehigh University in the U.S. have developed a titanium catalyst that makes light usable for selective chemical reactions. It provides a cost ...

In chemical processes for producing pharmaceuticals, catalysts are a core technology that determines production speed and cost. However, until now, there has been a trade-off between "precise but ...

Heterogeneous catalysis—in which catalysts and reactants are of different phases, e.g., solid and gas—is important to many industrial processes and often involves solid metal as the catalyst. Ammonia ...

A research team reports they have created an organic reaction called α-allylation with simple ketones and allyl alcohols.

New research shows that metal-oxide catalysts can sometimes release oxygen from within their structure, enhancing chemical activity. Chemical reactions that release oxygen in the presence of a ...

Scientists have discovered that physically confined spaces can make for more efficient chemical reactions. Physically confined spaces can make for more efficient chemical reactions, according to ...

Scientists from Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT), Japan, have discovered that a catalyst poison, which deactivates homogeneous catalysts, can be "reborn" as an efficient ligand by ...
