Modular alkene synthesis from carboxylic acids, alcohols and alkanes via integrated photocatalysis. Nature Chemistry , 2024; DOI: 10.1038/s41557-024-01642-6 Cite This Page : ...

Chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a straightforward method to convert common chemicals like carboxylic acids, alcohols, and alkanes directly into valuable ...

This was accomplished despite the fact that the alkene hydrogenation rate in the absence of alkyne was much higher than the rate of semi-hydrogenation of the alkyne. After demonstrating that BiVO 4 ...

The alkanes, alkenes and cycloalkanes are examples of homologous series. A homologous series is a group of chemicals which have similar chemical properties and can be represented by a general formula.

Alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and carboxylic acids are different homologous series of organic compounds. Naturally occurring and synthetic polymers can be formed from a variety of monomers.
