The complex building blocks of life can form spontaneously in space, a new lab experiment shows. The complex precursors to ...

Chemists have synthesized a highly complex natural molecule through a new strategy of functionalizing normally inert carbon-hydrogen (C-H). The journal Science has published the breakthrough. Led by ...

People have long scratched their heads trying to understand how life ever got going after the formation of Earth billions of years ago. Now, chemists have partly unlocked the recipe by creating a ...

Using robots and click chemistry, scientists built potential active ingredients for future antibiotics that contain metal.

A team of researchers from Russia, the United States, and China led by Skoltech Professor Artem R. Oganov has discovered an unexpected very complex europium hydride, Eu8H46. The paper detailing the ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE), in collaboration with astrophysicists from the ...

For the first time, MIT chemists have synthesized a fungal compound known as verticillin A, which was discovered more than 50 years ago and has shown potential as an anticancer agent. The compound has ...

Hazardous materials responders across the country have a new way to look at hazmat chemistry: the "HazMat IQ" system, which lets responders see immediate application of the material to their response ...

Complexes and preipitates of nickel (II) are formed by adding ammonium hydroxide, ethylenediamine, and dimethylglyoxime to dilute solutions of Ni2+ in beakers. Cyanide salts and solutions are ...
