When it comes to electrochemistry, the first thing that pops into mind probably isn’t C–H activation or arene cross-coupling reactions. You might think of batteries and solar cells, or industrial ...

Chemists produce new oxidants as a tool for preparative chemistry. Chemical oxidation, the selective removal of electrons from a substrate, represents one of the most important transformations in ...

Researchers can make the oxidation reactions used in the synthesis of organic molecules cleaner by hitching photovoltaics to electrochemistry. The idea is simple and yet it has huge implications. To ...

Thiophene-based materials have emerged as important organic semiconductors for making electronic devices such as solar cells, field-effect transistors, and light-emitting diodes. In the quest to ...

This module covers aldehydes and ketones as the substrates and products of redox reactions. Structure is explained with both Lewis structures and molecular orbitals to discuss mechanisms in the ...

A NUMBER of methods for the radioiodination of proteins and amino-acids have been described 1,2. Some have relied on transfer of elemental iodine from an oxidizing medium by extraction with an organic ...

Chemical oxidation, the selective removal of electrons from a substrate, represents one of the most important transformations in chemistry. However, most common oxidants often show disadvantages such ...
