Non-metal chemistry encompasses the study of elements and compounds that, by virtue of their electronic configurations and bonding characteristics, do not exhibit metallic properties. This field spans ...

The technique, metal atom vapor chemistry, generates single atoms of metal, which behave quite differently from their more familiar bulk metal forms--and reacting these metal atoms may someday ...

Researchers have helped minimize the cost of an important class of chemical transformations: converting nitriles into primary amines. Their experimental protocol uses a cheap nickel catalyst instead ...

Dr. Johannes Fessler of the Leibniz Institute for Catalysis in Rostock has created novel techniques for manufacturing pharmacological precursors employing iron, manganese, and cobalt catalysts. These ...
