A team of chemists from Tsinghua University and Guangxi Normal University, both in China, has found an organic catalyst that can be used to make chlorine more energy efficiently. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the group describes how they searched for and found an organocatalyst with an amide functional group that could be used to enable a chlorine evolution reaction.
