A particular silicon compound that has been sought by scientists for decades has been created by two separate teams of researchers. Here's how they got there.

Aromatic prenyltransferases (aPTases) transfer prenyl moieties from isoprenoid donors to various aromatic acceptors, some of which have the rare property of extreme enzymatic promiscuity toward both a ...

Calculations of the molecule’s magnetic properties show that electrons circulate continuously around the bismuth ring—a key ...

An international team with researchers from the University of Bayreuth presents a potentially groundbreaking discovery for nitrogen chemistry in "Nature Chemistry". For the first time, a compound ...

Scientists from Skoltech have presented a review on the use of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in metal-ion batteries. The ...

Aromaticity is one of chemistry’s oldest concepts to describe the behavior of molecules. Chemists created it 150 years ago to help visualize and explain the bonding, structure, and reactivity of ...

The key advantage of hydrocarbons lies in their tunability. Unlike the rigid structure of graphite, which currently dominates the anode market for lithium batteries, hydrocarbon molecules can be ...

Researchers have developed a new strategy to transform microalgae into high-value fuel chemicals more efficiently and cleanly ...

Lignin is the only large-scale, naturally occurring source of aromatic structures that underpin a significant portion of ...

Waters Corporation has introduced next-generation Acquity™ and XBridge™ Biphenyl Liquid Chromatography Columns with MaxPeak™ Premier Technology, designed to deliver enhanced aromatic selectivity with ...
