The β-furanose form of D-ribose – present in countless biomolecules – does not occur in the crystalline compound, but in in two crystal forms.
D-Ribose: Two Crystal Forms in the Solid State
Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions
Scientists in China have described the Kumada-Tamao-Corriu reaction of phenolic salts with various aryl Grignard reagents using a nickel catalyst.
Light-Controlled Phase Tag
A homogeneous ruthenium-carbene complex tagged with a light-responding nitrobenzospiropyran group has significant catalytic activity in ring-closing metathesis reactions and was recycled several times.
Application of Classical Resolution for Separation of DL-Serine
The knowledge of accurate solid-liquid phase equilibria serves as a basis for the design of crystallization processes.
