The Post group has worked to understand the basis of the catalytic power of enzymes using information from crystallography, kinetics, and a description of conformational distributions from molecular ...

Covalent organic framework compounds are more active as catalysts than one would expect. Researchers have now discovered why.

Upon addition of hydrogen peroxide to Rochelle's salt (sodium potassium tartrate), the hydrogen peroxide decomposes and tartaric acid is oxidized. This reaction proceeds very slowly at room ...

catalysis, and more. Common condensation reactions used in the synthesis of COFs include: Boronate Ester Formation: Involves the reaction of boronic acids with diols to form boronate esters, creating ...

In a paper published in National Science Review, Professor Yong Cui and colleagues reported the utility of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in manipulating electron spin for spin-dependent catalysis ...
