For the past 20 years, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules have commonly been considered the carriers of unidentified infrared emission (UIE) features. This hypothesis assumes that the UIE ...

The catalytic hydrogenation of carboxylic acid derivatives represents an atom-efficient and clean reduction methodology in organic chemistry. More specifically, the selective hydrogenation of nitriles ...

Laboratory experiments have clearly demonstrated that the transport of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., phenanthrene, anthracene, pyrene) through porous media is enhanced by their association ...

Researchers from the Muñiz group have published a paper in Angewandte Chemie - International Edition presenting a new metal-free methodology for the photo-catalyzed nucleophilic fluorination of ...

In any offshore facility, it is important to monitor oil in produced water because any sheen around the platform can attract costly fines for surpassing the discharge permit limits for oil (Figure 1).
