Researchers at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, have discovered a new synthetic pathway with which they can produce a specific organic compound from the simple molecule carbon monoxide (CO), namely ...

Two pathways diverged in a chemical synthesis, and one molecule took them both. Chemists have studied how molecular building blocks can either form a spherical cage or an ultrathin sheet that shows ...

Many organic molecules are chiral, which means that they are non-superimposable on their mirror image. Those mirror images are called enantiomers and can have different properties when interacting ...

Chemists have long sought to identify stable all-nitrogen chemical species. N 2, of course, is ubiquitous; and N 3 –, the azide anion, is well characterized. But what about N 4 and higher? Several ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Water molecule rotational dynamics within a chloride anion's first hydration shell are investigated through simulations. In contrast to recent ...

(Nanowerk News) A molecular machine is a series of molecules that can conduct different mechanical movements as a response to a stimulus. This is a key structure for the development of different ...

Two pathways diverged in a chemical synthesis, and one molecule took them both. Chemists at the University of Tokyo have studied how molecular building blocks can either form a spherical cage or an ...
