Organic chemistry is packed with rules about structure and reactivity, especially when it comes to making and breaking chemical bonds. The rules governing how these bonds, which hold atoms together in ...

Weak hydrogen bonds, such as O-H···π and C-H···O, are thought to direct biochemical assembly, molecular recognition, and chemical selectivity but are seldom observed in solution. We have used neutron ...

Boron exhibits a remarkable capacity to form a diverse array of cluster architectures, ranging from planar sheets and quasi‐planar rings to three‐dimensional cages and drums. This structural richness ...

Chemists at UCLA are showing that some of organic chemistry’s most famous “rules” aren’t as unbreakable as once thought. By creating bizarre, cage-shaped molecules with warped double bonds—structures ...

Image generated from an X-ray crystal structure shows a molecule with a five-membered silicon ring at its core. This X-ray crystal structure of the pentasilacyclopentadienide synthesized by David ...

Solvay, a global market leader in specialty materials, has expanded its range of FusePly® chemical bonding technology with a second product, FusePly ® 250, designed to bond composite structures at ...
