Molecular spectroscopy continues to be an indispensable tool for elucidating the structure and dynamics of molecular systems. By probing the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter, ...

During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...

A research team has successfully developed a new approach to create switchable magnetic materials by using hydrogen bonding at the molecular level. This groundbreaking study shows how certain metal ...

It’s difficult to make molecules using elements that lie beyond uranium on the periodic table, which has hampered progress in studying how actinides form bonds. Now chemists have expanded the library ...

Scientists have managed to successfully make a transuranium complex where the central metal, here neptunium, forms a multiple bond to just one other element. Enabling study of such a bonding ...

Halogen bonds were first proposed as an activating interaction in 2008, but this alternative type of organocatalysis was ...

For the first time, scientists have recorded electrons in the act of snapping chemical bonds, turning an abstract quantum ...
