A Warning to Beer Drinkers!!

A Warning to Beer Drinkers
Recent research report found that, arsenic has been added in the beer filtration process. It is known that, In 2008, Italian beer withhold high level of arsenic. It is very important to note that, arsenic is highly dangerous element to the human beings.

A simple and facile Heck-type arylation of alkenes with diaryliodonium salts using magnetically recoverable Pd-catalyst

The Heck-type arylation of alkenes was achieved in aqueous polyethylene glycol using a magnetically recoverable heterogenized palladium catalyst employing diaryliodonium salts under ambient conditions. The benign reaction medium and the stability of the catalyst are the salient features of this simple and facile protocol.

Cobalt catalysts for the coupling of CO2 and epoxides to provide polycarbonates and cyclic carbonates

This comprehensive tutorial review focuses on well-defined cobalt complexes that serve as homogeneous catalysts for the production of polycarbonates and cyclic carbonates from the coupling of carbon dioxide and epoxides. Special considerations are given to the mechanistic pathways involved in these processes.

Green chemistry oriented organic synthesis in water

The use of water as solvent features many benefits such as improving reactivities and selectivities, simplifying the workup procedures, enabling the recycling of the catalyst and allowing mild reaction conditions and protecting-group free synthesis in addition to being benign itself. In addition, exploring organic chemistry in water can lead to uncommon reactivities and selectivities complementing the organic chemists' synthetic toolbox in organic solvents. Studying chemistry in water also allows insight to be gained into Nature's way of chemical synthesis. However, using water as solvent is not always green. This tutorial reviewbriefly discusses organic synthesis in water with a Green Chemistry perspective.
