Collagen, a protein found in bones and connective tissue, has been found in dinosaur fossils as old as 195 million years.

McMahan and LeSar 3 first predicted that nitrogen would transform from the molecular state, in which each atom is triple-bonded with one near neighbour, to a monoatomic structure in which each ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a powerful method to look deep inside single-atom catalysts—materials where every ...

Single-atom editing under mild conditions was achieved for heterocyclics, thanks to a new oxygen-to-nitrogen photocatalyst.

A single hydrogen atom has been snipped off a molecule and then added back on again, marking the first time a single chemical bond has been broken and reforged in a controlled, reversible way. The ...

At extremely high temperatures and pressures, nitrogen gas assumes a three-dimensional crystal structure called polymeric nitrogen, a long-sought energy-storage material.
