Reactions that alter organic scaffolds by a single atom are already proving useful, but time will tell if they’ll ...

Ordinary nitrogen gas – an insulator – is abundant in the atmosphere and the robust triple bonds that pair the atoms in each molecule are well understood. But in 1985 theorists predicted that, at a ...

Remove the right one. One approach, outlined in a paper in Nature led by graduate student Jisoo Woo, works on molecules that already have a nitrogen atom nearby in the structure. The new method ...

Eremets calls it “nitrogen diamond” because it’s similar to diamond in appearance and structure. X-ray and optical analyses of the sample confirmed that the nitrogen had indeed become polymeric.

Cube-shaped iron-sulfur clusters support multiple bond between iron and nitrogen Date: May 3, 2021 Source: Wiley Summary: In a number of biological processes, iron-sulfur clusters play a vital ...

Illustration of the swapping technique (C: carbon; H: hydrogen; N: nitrogen): The figure shows the chemical structures of indoles (X corresponds to N) and benzofurans (X corresponds to O), which serve ...
