Skoltech researchers have theoretically investigated the wide range of molecules that oxygen and carbon atoms can form in ...

In the form of an organometallic complex – with their high symmetries and multiple covalent bonds with carbon – it's also ...

Big question. Grit, determination, hardworking, handsome, charming, funny. Teacher: Well, I guess. But you're actually made of atoms. In fact, everything is made of ...

Researchers at the Universities of Amsterdam and Zurich have developed a molecular system for the controlled release of iron.

The pioneering nuclear chemist Glenn Seaborg discovered berkelium at Berkeley Lab in 1949. It was one of many achievements ...

Researchers have synthesised a triple bond between carbon and boron for the first time. This discovery could help chemists ...

A new reagent has moved carbon-atom transfer out of the chemical flatlands, allowing chemists to place a single carbon atom so that it makes bonds to four different substituents. The reagent makes ...

The number of bonds a carbon atom forms with other elements in a compound determines its chemical structure and behavior. Normally, a carbon atom shares all four of its valence electrons to create ...

Boron Atom in an Uncomfortable Situation In the novel molecule, the boron atom is in a linear arrangement with carbon atoms. "In combination with the triple bond, this is about as uncomfortable as ...

Matter is made up of very small parts called atoms. Atoms can combine in different numbers and in different ways to make different molecules. Atoms and molecules make up all of the different ...
