Application


  • Approach to synthesis and study of pharmacological effects of new 1, 3, 5-triazine derivatives: This research includes the use of sodium methylate in methanol medium for synthesizing new triazine derivatives, predicting their pharmacological effects using GUSAR software (Levshukova et al., 2024).

  • Exothermic barrier-free carboxylation of alkali methylates: Investigates the interaction of sodium methylate with CO2 to synthesize dialkyl carbonates, presenting a high-yield method rationalized through molecular dynamics (Chaban, 2023).
