Scientists are putting the pedal to the metal to develop new antibiotics. Metal-based drugs can open a new world of medicine, especially as antimicrobial resistance is growing. Researchers have also ...

The term aromaticity is a basic, long-standing concept in chemistry that is well established for ring-shaped carbon compounds. Aromatic rings consisting solely of metal atoms were, however, heretofore ...

Metallic hydrogen 1 is believed to be the most common condensed phase of matter in the universe, comprising the cores of gas-giant planets 2,3,4 and giving rise to their enormous magnetic fields.

A study by researchers from the University of British Columbia's Blusson Quantum Matter Institute (UBC Blusson QMI) has found a rare form of one-dimensional quantum magnetism in the metallic compound ...

Metal-metal bonding is a classic research topic in chemical bonding studies and has been applied as a tool for developing molecular magnets as well as for addressing challenges in biology, energy, and ...

Organic compounds that can be sustainably and affordably mass-produced show promise as replacements for expensive metal photocatalysts, according to a new report published July 17. Scientists from the ...

Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...
