Direct oxidation of methane to methanol is dominated by transition- or noble-metal-based catalysts, thus making the reaction quite expensive. To make the process efficient and cost-effective, ...

Photosynthesis in nature uses the CaMn4O5 cluster as the oxygen-evolving center to catalyze the water oxidation efficiently in photosystem II (PS II). Synergistic effect among the multi-metal centers ...

A new sandwiched iron complex allows chemists to put iron(I) to work in catalytic reactions in the same way chemists use ...

The discovery of graphene—a one-atom-thick sheet of covalently bonded carbon atoms—inspired the research community to generate a variety of 2D materials. Graphene, MoS 2, the silicon equivalent of ...

A new technique offers a sharp picture of an elusive and ephemeral stage of a chemical’s life. By precisely measuring the energy of a molecule at the instant it morphs from one form to another, ...

Chemists have devised a technique that allows them to determine the structure of the transition state of a reaction by observing the products that result from the reaction. During a chemical reaction, ...
