In a recent article, researchers from the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, emphasize the importance of multiscale modeling of catalysis in understanding and developing (electro)chemical processes.

The enzyme RNA polymerase (RNAP) carries out transcription, copying DNA into RNA. It's the first step in gene expression, and ...

A vial in a laboratory being illuminated by a blue-light lamp. Chemists at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that phosphine can exhibit metal-like behavior in photocatalytic reactions ...

Using a smart computational search, scientists discovered a catalyst ingredient that finally makes tough alkyl ketones behave the way chemists want. The reaction now runs cleanly and reliably, opening ...

Accuracy and speedup achieved with the Weighted Active Space Protocol (WASP) for methane activation on titanium carbide. (Figure courtesy of Seal et al.) Catalysts play an indispensable role in modern ...

In a recent study published in ACS Catalysis, researchers at Chiba University unveiled a redox-adaptive strategy that allows a single homogeneous cerium catalyst to catalyze two chemically distinct ...

Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara, unveiled a new modular way to combine three mix-and-matchable molecular pieces into new amino acid derivatives using an engineered enzyme ...
