(Nanowerk News) A variety of experiments, including x-ray studies at the Advanced Light Source (ALS), provided direct evidence of a magnetic transition in a type of 2D transition metal compound called ...

Speeding up chemical reactions is key to improving industrial processes or mitigating unwanted or harmful waste. Realizing these improvements requires that chemists design around documented reaction ...

New play in transition metal chemistry playbook revealed. New research shows that net oxidative addition can occur via a different order of events in which the transitiion metal complex accepts ...

In the production of compounds, chemists have the goal of finding strategies that are most selective and avoid waste products. This helps to drive industrial innovation and drug development. In this ...

Almost half a century ago, a remarkable molecule called metallocene took center stage in chemistry, earning Geoffrey Wilkinson and Ernst Otto Fischer the Nobel Prize. These organic compounds, made of ...

A team of chemists has uncovered an unexpected way to use phosphorus to perform chemical reactions typically reliant on rare ...

Metal valence state was identified as a key factor steering the anion reactivity and thus “indirectly” affecting the Li-bond strength, which further determined the conversion kinetics of lithium (poly ...

A paper about heteroligand complexes of copper was published in Russian Journal of General Chemistry. Studies of metal complexes with organic ligands at Kazan Federal University were initiated back in ...
