A catalyst that effectively converts amides to amines at low temperature under low hydrogen pressure has been demonstrated by a team of researchers. Amines are vital in nature; for example, amino ...
DESPITE THEIR FUNDAMENTAL ROLE in chemical and biochemical systems, amides are tough to make. Routes to this functional group usually employ toxic reagents, such as thionyl chloride; require corrosive ...
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 ...
Amines are an important class of organic compounds. Students might be aware that adrenaline and ephedrine, which contain secondary amino groups, are used to increase blood pressure. Novocain which is ...
Carbon dioxide capture by means of amines is considered to be the most appropriate method to quickly begin with CO<sub>2</sub> removal. During this capture process, some of the amines escaping the ...
Many combined cycle power plants have established a pH guideline between 9.6 and 10.0 to minimize corrosion in heat recovery steam generators and condensers. Neutralizing amines are used to achieve ...
