Nitroaromatics are well-known energetic materials. Their importance has led to extensive studies of their decomposition mechanisms, in particular for nitrobenzene, a prototype molecule of this sort.

The catalytic isomerization of allylic alcohols represents a pivotal transformation in modern synthetic chemistry. Using transition metal complexes, this reaction converts readily available allylic ...

An international research team has succeeded in controlling the chirality of individual molecules through structural isomerization. The team also succeeded in synthesizing highly reactive diradicals ...

Researchers have used excited-state electron transfer events to 'pump' olefin molecules up and then have them fall back down through a series of favorable steps to ultimately transform into a less ...

Network control theory can describe the photochemical isomerization of glucose to allose. This transformation, in which the hydroxy group on a single carbon flips from one stereochemical configuration ...

The isomerization process is playing a significant role for refiners in the FSU as they try to maintain gasoline pool octane and comply with more stringent gasoline pool requirements. This article ...

HOUSTON, Aug. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- KBR (NYSE: KBR) announced today that it has acquired isomerization technologies from RRT Global that will enable KBR to offer expanded octane and clean fuel ...
