May 3, 2021 In a number of biological processes, iron-sulfur clusters play a vital role, where they act as cofactors to enzymes. Research now shows that cubic clusters can support unusual bonding states. This ...
May 23, 2022 Engineers now report selective breakdown of a particularly stubborn class of PFAS called fluorinated carboxylic acids (FCAs) by common microorganisms. Under anaerobic conditions, a carbon-carbon ...
May 27, 2021 Chemists have determined the structure of the complex that forms when N2 binds to an iron-sulfur cluster, offering clues as to how microbes use nitrogenase enzymes to convert atmospheric dinitrogen ...
June 2, 2021 Researchers have discovered a new organic reaction that selectively converts only a specific carbon-fluorine (C-F) bond in perfluorinated compounds to other functional groups. This is expected to ...
Sep. 6, 2023 Chemists have extended a powerful molecule-building method -- called C-H activation -- to the broad class of chemicals known as ...
Mar. 16, 2022 Researchers have developed a new tool that could lead to more efficient and cheaper technologies for capturing heat-trapping gases from the atmosphere and converting them into beneficial substances, ...
June 2, 2022 Researchers have created an iron catalyst that can facilitate important chemical reactions in place of the current catalyst, which is made from precious ...
July 6, 2021 Chemical engineers have developed a machine-learning model that can predict a compound's oxidation state, a property that is so essential that many chemists argue it must be included in the ...
June 9, 2021 Chemical rings of carbon and hydrogen atoms curve to form relatively stable structures capable of conducting electricity and more -- but how do these curved systems change when new components are ...
June 14, 2022 Researchers have managed to observe and characterize dynamic assembly of metallic atoms using an ingenious combination of scanning transmission electron microscopy and a video-based tracking. By ...
