Scientists have identified a new property, interface flexibility, that controls how certain molecules naturally self-organize into crystalline supramolecular networks. This significant discovery could ...

Covalent bonding is a widely understood phenomenon that joins the atoms of a molecule by a shared electron pair. But in ...

Supramolecular chemistry is the study of entities of greater complexity than individual molecules — assemblies of molecules that bond and organize through intermolecular interactions.

Quantum researchers have long believed that strong spin interactions in qubits required covalent bonds, making large-scale ...

Until now, research has assumed that the interaction between two spin centres can only ... covalent bonds can allow for efficient spin communication (Nature Chemistry, "Supramolecular dyads as ...

Covalent bonding is a widely understood phenomenon that joins the atoms of a molecule by a shared electron pair. But in nature, patterns of molecules ...

In all instances, the σ-hole was deeper and formed a stronger bond with the nucleophile NH 3. These findings advance our fundamental knowledge of non-covalent interactions based on σ- and π-holes and ...

A Franco-German research team, including members from the University of Freiburg, shows that supramolecular chemistry enables efficient spin communication through hydrogen bonds. The work is published ...

Researchers at the Institute of Physical Chemistry at the University of Freiburg and the Institut Charles Sadron at the University of Strasbourg were able to demonstrate for the first time that ...
