A team of researchers led by Felipe Herrera, a professor at the University of Santiago and a researcher at the Millennium ...

Valence bond theory offers a description of chemical bonding in which atomic orbitals overlap to form localized electron pairs, blending ionic and covalent contributions to yield resonance energies ...

Halogen bonds are robust and tuneable enough to build permanently porous frameworks, new research shows. The findings ...

Researchers at European XFEL in Germany have tracked in real time the movement of individual atoms during a chemical reaction in the gas phase. Using extremely short X-ray flashes, they were able to ...

Nitrenes are the ghosts of synthetic chemistry, formed in an instant and gone just as quickly, rearranging into something ...
