Chemists develop framework to enable efficient synthesis of 'information-dense' molecules
News 243Days Ago (10-18)Such molecules are often found in plants and other organisms, and many are considered desirable starting points for developing potential new drugs. But they also tend to be highly challenging for chemists to construct and modify in the lab... -
Room temperature conversion of CO2 to CO: A new way to synthesize hydrocarbons
News 276Days Ago (09-15)Although the researchers demonstrated this method in a small-scale, highly controlled environment with dimensions of just nanometers (billionths of a meter), they have already come up with concepts for scaling up the method and making it pr... -
Path to nanodiamond from graphene found
News 328Days Ago (07-26)While it may only take a bit of heat to turn a treated bilayer of the ultrathin material into a cubic lattice of diamane, a bit of pressure in just the right place can convert few-layer graphene as well. The otherwise chemically driven proc...
