Researchers at the University of Oulu, Finland, have developed a pine-bark–based water-treatment medium that efficiently ...

Semiempirical AM1-TDHF calculations of the static first hyperpolarizabilities, β(0), of 1,3-thiazolium-5-thiolate mesoionic derivatives were performed. Guided by these results, two new mesoionic ...

In organic chemistry, identifying meso compounds is a critical skill for understanding stereochemistry and molecular properties. A meso compound is a molecule that contains chiral centers but is ...

Classifying compounds as meso or non-meso requires understanding their structure and symmetry. Meso compounds, while possessing chiral centers, are achiral due to an internal plane of symmetry. This ...

Abstract: This paper describes software for designing homodesmic reactions using the example of a cyclic compound of cyclobutanecarbonitrile. The homodesmic method showed high reliability of the ...

With the exception of lithium, alkali metals do not react with elemental nitrogen either at ambient conditions or at elevated temperatures, requiring the search for alternative synthetic routes to ...

If you want to grow your savings, understanding compound interest is a must. This basic finance concept can make a huge difference to your savings or investments over the years. Unlike simple interest ...

Compound interest is one of those financial concepts that can make a world of difference to your savings and investments over time. Unlike simple interest, which is calculated solely on the principal ...

Metals like rhodium and palladium are C–H activation aces, but these metals are rare and expensive. For several years, chemists led by Lutz Ackermann at the Georg August University Göttingen have been ...
