(B) This is the structure of oleic acid, an 18-carbon unsaturated fat. The carbons of the alkene functional group, the site of unsaturation, are in the rounded rectangle. Since there is only one ...

This versatile method simplifies the production of valuable alkenes from abundant feedstock chemicals including carboxylic ...

It can convert fatty acids to 1-alkenes at the fastest rate currently possible. But the team found that the process was not very efficient—the enzyme would become inactivated after just a few ...

The rapid disappearance of the amber color of the bromine at room temperature is characteristic of reaction with alkenes. (colorless) (purple) (colorless ...

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

A major advance in alkene oligomerization catalysis was Brookhart’s 1995 report of highly active group 10 metal diimine systems. In contrast to nickel and palladium catalysts, the corresponding ...
