Formaldehyde is a simple chemical compound that is used as a building block in obtaining a wide range of products. The versatility of formaldehyde in chemical synthesis becomes evident when it is reacted with N-alkylethylenediamines. Therefore, this paper reports the structure an...
Molecules with tuneable properties are well known for their applications in the material and bio-medical fields; nevertheless, the structural and functional tunability makes them more significant in diverse applications. Herein, we designed and synthesized a novel class of star-s...

In this study, commercially available molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) was used, in the presence of H2O2, as an efficient pre-catalyst for the selective C-H allylic oxygenation of several unsaturated molecules into the corresponding allylic alcohols. Under these basic conditions, an air...
