Researchers have confirmed that the spinel compound CuIr2S4, long studied for its unusual metal-insulator transition, becomes ...

Platinum works beautifully. It speeds up chemical reactions, holds up under punishment, and sits reliably at the center of ...

A research team at King’s College London has isolated a triangular aluminum compound, called a cyclotrialumane, that can ...

(Nanowerk News) A variety of experiments, including x-ray studies at the Advanced Light Source (ALS), provided direct evidence of a magnetic transition in a type of 2D transition metal compound called ...

New play in transition metal chemistry playbook revealed. New research shows that net oxidative addition can occur via a different order of events in which the transitiion metal complex accepts ...

Speeding up chemical reactions is key to improving industrial processes or mitigating unwanted or harmful waste. Realizing these improvements requires that chemists design around documented reaction ...

Metal valence state was identified as a key factor steering the anion reactivity and thus “indirectly” affecting the Li-bond strength, which further determined the conversion kinetics of lithium (poly ...
