Aluminium redox catalysis and reactive aluminium clusters showcase main-group element's transition-metal-like reactivity ...

Lithium-metal (Li-metal) batteries show great potential for packing more significant amounts of energy than the current lithium-ion batteries. For example, a Li-metal electric battery in a car could ...

Rare earth metal methylidene complexes represent an exciting frontier in organometallic chemistry, characterised by the presence of a terminal CH₂ moiety bound directly to a rare earth element. These ...

A newly isolated three-atom aluminum ring reveals unexpected chemistry that could help replace costly metals used in ...

A vial in a laboratory being illuminated by a blue-light lamp. Chemists at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that phosphine can exhibit metal-like behavior in photocatalytic reactions ...

Scientists have shown what it takes to make long-overlooked chromium help form ammonia; this work is a critical step in controlling a reaction that could store electrons from intermittent wind and ...

A collaborative research effort between the Departments of Chemistry at the University of Oxford (United Kingdom) and University of Jyväskylä (Finland) has resulted in the discovery of a gold compound ...
