(Â鶹ÒùÔº)—John C. K. Chu and Tomislav Rovis of Colorado State University and Columbia University have devised a strategy for C-C bond formation at inert tertiary C-H bonds of amides. This reaction involves cleavage of ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔº)—A group of researchers from France, the U.K. and Florida proposes criteria to determine whether an allotrope is experimentally feasible. They use theoretical carbon allotropes, penta-graphene and Haeckelites, ...
(Â鶹ÒùÔº) —Boron is the ambivert of atoms. Technically classified as a metalloid, boron can undergo organic reactions, forming covalent bonds like carbon, but it can also form ions resulting in metal-like bonds. Several ...
The ability to modulate the physical properties of graphene oxide within electronic components could have numerous applications in technology, WPI-MANA scientists report
(Â鶹ÒùÔºOrg.com) -- By applying extreme pressure to compress and flatten carbon nanotubes, scientists have discovered that they can create a new carbon polymer that simulations show is hard enough to crack diamond. The pressure-induced ...
The future brightened for organic chemistry when researchers at Rice University found a highly controllable way to attach organic molecules to pristine graphene, making the miracle material suitable for a range of new applications.
