Using muon spin rotation spectroscopy, researchers from Japan and Canada have successfully captured the rapid conversion of ...

Main group elements in low oxidation states have the potential to carry out chemistry that’s usually reserved for transition metals. For example, at low oxidation states, these atoms might be able to ...

Radical chemistry occupies a fascinating niche at the intersection of reactive intermediates and advanced materials science, where the interplay of unpaired electrons underpins unconventional bonding ...

Organocatalysts consisting of organic compounds without metal elements are receiving much attention as next generation catalysts in the hope of reducing environmental burden and coping with exhaustion ...

Alkyl radicals are carbon radicals of normal chain and branched chain alkanes, available as reaction intermediates even at late stages of synthesis. Recently, it has become possible to generate alkyl ...

A graduate student had a hunch for creating an exotic new chemical compound, and his idea that the force of love is stronger than hate proved correct. He and his colleagues are the first to ...
