Dipolar aprotic and ethereal solvents comprise just over 40% of all organic solvents utilized
in synthetic organic, medicinal, and process chemistry. Unfortunately, many of the common …

Starting from known properties of non-specific salt effects on the surface tension at an air–
water interface, we propose the first general, detailed qualitative molecular mechanism for …

The preparation of air and thermally stable n-type carbon nanotubes is desirable for their
further implementation in electronic and energy devices that rely on both p-and n-type …

The electrophilic properties of 34 solvents have been characterized by the Acceptor Number
(AN) which has been derived from 31 Pn. mr measurements of triethylphosphine oxide …

Most research on perovskite solar cells has focused on improving power-conversion
efficiency and stability. However, if one could refurbish perovskite solar cells, their stability …

Three important factors determining the reactivity of nucleophilic reagents are considered.
These are basicity, polarizabil-ity and the presence of unshared pairs of electrons on the …

Bimolecular reactions (see eq 1 below) between anions and uncharged species, as well as
some bimolecular reactions of other charge types, are often very much faster in dipolar …

In this article, we have studied p-phenylenediamine (PPD) and tetracyano-p-
phenylenediamine (TCPPD) molecules in order to study the effect of CN groups and the …

The dipolar aprotic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide is liquid over a wide range of temperatures, is
a strong electron donor, and has a high polarity. It is therefore an excellent and selective …
