“…A description of the methods and protocols is the heart of any paper. Authors should provide all the details so that the experiments can be reproduced and the results can be verified by other researchers who would like to further advance the field. , Reproducibility and novelty are two reasons why a published article gains popularity and becomes a seminal paper in the field of interest. It is also the responsibility of the authors to conduct control experiments and support the hypothesis by ruling out other possible explanations.…”

“…Mechanistic understanding enables rational optimization of reaction parameters, such as side product suppression, stereoselectivity, and catalyst and ligand design. There are many articles that describe best practices for conducting kinetic studies, − but these are often specific to the type of kinetic methodology used. Furthermore, there is a paucity of resources that detail best practices for the collection of high-quality time course data using modern process analytical technology (PAT).…”

Kinetic investigations can provide critical mechanistic information for the optimization of the reaction parameters and reaction development. Modern kinetic analyses such as RPKA and VTNA provide many advantages over traditional initial rate methods and are especially powerful when coupled with reaction monitoring technologies. While these are robust analytical methods, the lack of careful observation and optimization can lead to misinterpretation of the data. In this Perspective, we highlight some commonly overlooked considerations in kinetic studies based on our experiences and present a general guide to proper optimization of reactions and analytics prior to acquiring kinetic data.

Chemicals and materials with essential and functional uses are central to economic and social well-being. However, the development and application of such items may be challenged when sustainability factors are considered. These are further challenged by disciplinary gaps and concerns over reproducible and responsible research. Here, we detail a checklist for early career researchers on how “to do” research on chemicals, materials, processes, and products in a manner that is safe and sustainable by design. The checklist contains 20 items that are organized into five interconnected sections: (1) think broad and big, (2) set a clear research foundation, (3) focus on quality and reproducibility, (4) flag safe and sustainability issues, and (5) communicate, listen, and learn. Each item can be self-scored on 0–3 scale. This checklist is meant to be a fast tool to help researchers better “think and do” things so that outcomes and outputs may help address societal grand challenges.
