Core@shell spheres made up of a thin layer of resorcinol-formaldehyde enveloping a silica core were prepared by means of a one-step method under Stöber conditions. These spheres are used as a platform for the synthesis of carbon or polymeric capsules
Graphitized carbons with mesoporous and macroporous structures were synthesized by a facile template-catalysis procedure using resorcinol and formaldehyde as carbon precursors and particulate hydrated metal oxides as both template and catalyst precursors. The materials were used as novel adsorbents for
Phosphate-functionalized carbon monoliths from deep eutectic solvents and their use as monolithic electrodes in supercapacitors.

The efficient Pd-catalyzed double-fold C-H oxygenation of arenes into resorcinols using the newly developed 2-pyrimidyldiisopropylsilyl (PyrDipSi) directing group is described. Its use allows for the sequential introduction of OAc and OPiv groups in a one-pot manner to produce orthogonally protected

An overview on the preparation and properties of resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) organic and carbon gels reveals the fascinating and remarkably flexible properties of RF carbon and organic gels and how these properties are related to the synthesis and processing conditions. The
