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 ...
Aromatic medicinal plants derive their therapeutic value from complex mixtures of volatile compounds, yet the genetic logic ...
After nearly 50 years of failed attempts and scientific speculation, chemists at Saarland University have achieved what many ...
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 ...
THE most obvious evidence of interaction of some kind between aromatic polynitro compounds and other aromatic substances is the isolation of many crystalline compounds containing the two components in ...
The latest short science news items from C&EN. Saito explains that selenium’s large size allows overlapping σ orbitals from the six atoms to create aromaticity. The phenylselenyl groups donate ...
Researchers from The University of Osaka have developed a synthetic method that reliably and efficiently incorporates boron-rich carborane clusters into aromatic compounds as simple as "mixing and ...
