For the first time, researchers have developed a way to create chilled molecules containing the radioactive element radium.

CoCoGraph: A Leap Forward for Molecular Innovation For decades, the discovery of new molecules has often been a slow and ...

People have always looked for patterns to explain the universe and to predict the future. “Red sky at night, sailor’s delight. Red sky in morning, sailor’s warning” is an adage predicting the weather.

Organic chemistry is packed with rules about structure and reactivity, especially when it comes to making and breaking chemical bonds. The rules governing how these bonds, which hold atoms together in ...

Chemists have now come up with a way to make molecules known as acenes more stable, allowing them to synthesize acenes of varying lengths. Using their new approach, they were able to build molecules ...

Researchers from Germany, Japan and India, led by scientists from DESY and the Universities of Kiel and Hamburg, have found a way to collectively make molecules on a flat surface rotate by exposing ...

Scientists have developed a new way to build tiny sulfur-containing molecules that could help create faster, more efficient, ...

Much of the world we see around us is made up of complicated molecules. If you go to the store, virtually everything you see—every bottle of nail polish, every bag of lawn fertilizer, and every ...

MISSOULA, Mont. — The University of Montana received a three-year $575,000 federal grant to study how synthetic molecules transform. The study will focus on how molecules fold into specific shapes and ...
