The Biginelli reaction is an organic cyclocondensation whose products are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as calcium channel blockers, antihypertensive agents, mitotic kinase inhibitors and antiviral agents among applications. The speed of this reaction is...
Transition metal complexes attached to some pyrazole-based ligands have the advantage of being versatile, as they can be found in the synthesis of new solid materials or in environmental chemistry, when used in treatments of heavy metal contaminated solutions. A combined...
At the beginning of the 20th century miners used caged canaries to detect the presence of lethal gases, but the chemistry of the 21st century respects animals and represents a giant step in electrochemical detection. Researchers at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona are studying the possibility of using a new...
