Novel, atom-efficient routes to amides from esters and carboxylic acids for more sustainable manufacturing. It is well known that amide-formation chemistry can be inefficient and warrants further ...
A high-yield, one-pot, scalable reaction facilitates the production of biologically relevant amide compounds using less reactive nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds and carboxylic acid without ...
Self-recognition and self-discrimination within complex mixtures are of fundamental importance in biological systems, which entirely rely on the preprogrammed monomer sequences and homochirality of ...
A new reaction that uses an atypical starting material to create amide linkages could make it easier to prepare peptides and other amide-containing compounds that have been difficult to make until now ...
New method developed by University of Warwick scientists uses enzymes to produce indolic amides, carboxylic acids and auxins – vital for use in pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries Mimics how ...
Carboxylic acids can undergo reduction reactions. Reduction is the opposite of oxidation. For example, ethanoic acid (CH 3 COOH) can be formed by the oxidation of ethanol as shown below. As reduction ...
A method of producing vital chemical building blocks for use in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries that mimics how plants manufacture them has been developed by University of Warwick ...
