Isotope-specific reactions of acetonitrile (CH3CN) with trapped, translationally cold CCl+ [PDF]
The gas-phase reaction of CCl+ with acetonitrile (CH3CN) is studied using a linear Paul ion trap coupled to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. This work builds on a previous study of the reaction of CCl+ with acetylene and further explores the reactivity of CCl+ with organic neutral molecules.

Peptide Bonds in the Interstellar Medium: Facile Autocatalytic Formation from Nitriles on Water-Ice Grains [PDF]
A recent suggestion that acetamide, \ce{CH3C(O)NH2}, could be readily formed on water-ice grains by the acid induced addition of water across the \ce{CN} bond is now shown to be valid. Computational modelling of the reaction between \ce{R-CN} (R = H, \ce{CH3}) and a cluster of 32 molecules of water and one \ce{H3O+} proceeds auto-catalytically to form ...

Facile and green synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles using doped nano-sized copper(I) oxide (Cu2O) on melamineâformaldehyde resin as an efficient nano-catalyst under ultrasonic irradiation [PDF]
In the present research, doped nano-sized copper(I) oxide (Cu2O) on melamine–formaldehyde resin as a heterogeneous and efficient nano-catalyst has been employed for green and mild synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles under ultrasonic irradiation. In

Molecular precursors of the RNA-world in space: new nitriles in the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud [PDF]
Nitriles play a key role as molecular precursors in prebiotic experiments based on the RNA-world scenario for the origin of life. These chemical compounds could have been partially delivered to the young Earth from extraterrestrial objects, stressing the importance of establishing the reservoir of nitriles in the interstellar medium. We report here the

The ALMA-PILS survey: Complex nitriles towards IRAS 16293--2422 [PDF]
Complex organic molecules are readily detected in the inner regions of the gaseous envelopes of forming protostars. In particular, molecules that contain nitrogen are interesting due to the role nitrogen plays in the development of life and the compact scales such molecules have been found to trace around forming protostars. The goal of this work is to

An anomalous hydration/dehydration sequence for the mild generation of a nitrile oxide [PDF]
A nitrile oxide containing a carbamoyl group is readily generated upon the treatment of 2-methyl-4-nitro-3-isoxazolin-5(2H)-one with water under mild reaction conditions, even in the absence of special reagents.
