The Knoevenagel and Biginelli reactions are very important protocols for organic chemistry. The Knoevenagel condensation is a type of aldol reaction widely used in the construction of new C–C bonds.

Abstract: Measurement of gas permeation with high sensitivity and reliability is important for many applications. A high-sensitivity gas permeation measurement system based on quadrupole mass ...

A team of scientists in the U.S. has accidentally discovered a new class of nanostructured materials that can pull water from the air, collect it in pores, and release it onto surfaces without any ...

Natural gas liquids (NGL) are a group of hydrocarbons, sometimes referred to as purity NGL, that includes ethane, propane, normal butane (n-butane), isobutane and natural gasoline (pentanes plus). NGL ...

Responsive slippery lubricant-infused surfaces (SLIS) have attracted substantial attention because of the high demand of fundamental research and practical applications, such as controllable ...

Driving liquid microdroplets has been challenging due to the large contact angle hysteresis and insufficient driving force at microscale. We designed a strategy to directionally transport water and ...

Ionic liquids (ILs) with 1,3-disubstituted imidazolium cations and the dimethyl phosphate (DMP) anion, as well as the chloride anion were prepared and characterized by 1H NMR spectra, chromatographic ...
