Dr Arran Solomonsz recently headed out to the Malvern Hills in the UK for a “staycation” in the fresh, countryside air! How can we bring that back to the lab with us though?
Today Martyn talks a bit more about how Asynt has adapted during the recent pandemic and how we have kept in regular contact with our customers during lockdown.
Asynt reports upon the synthesis of novel Gold (Au) organometallic complexes for use by researchers in the School of Chemistry at the University of Bristol (UK) achieved using a DrySyn SnowStorm Reactor and DrySyn Splitter Manifold.
We are pleased to share our newsletter for July 2020!
Packed full of news, and some fun stuff, it’s definitely worth a read. We hope you enjoy it!
The Asynt team have been all over the world – virtually – via Teams and Zoom but what have they been up to when you weren’t looking? Here’s a sneaky peek at just some of the team and their “lockdown hobbies”!
DrySyn OCTO Evaluation: “We have used the DrySyn OCTO to perform a variety of heterogeneous catalysis reactions under nitrogen to eliminate formation of side products. Using DrySyn OCTO – parallel
There’s an amazing smell in the air after heavy rain in summer – and even a recognisable scent when a big storm is brewing. These smells can mostly be attributed to three major compounds.
It sounds ridiculous, of course, but chemist Anna-Lena Kjøniksen and her colleagues have made a cement from urea (major component of urine) and a faux lunar soil.
Dr Kerry Elgie talks us through the key maintenance which should be regularly carried out on your vacuum pump!
The Chianese Organometallic Chemistry group at Colgate University (Hamilton, NY, USA) are using a custom designed Multicell Parallel High-Pressure Reactor from Asynt to conduct reproducible hydrogenation experiments in parallel, to rapidly determine the kinetic properties of their novel catalysts.
