A new reagent has moved carbon-atom transfer out of the chemical flatlands, allowing chemists to place a single carbon atom so that it makes bonds to four different substituents. The reagent makes ...

The picture shows a close-up of one carbon atom. A hydrogen atom has one proton as the nucleus and one electron in the region outside the nucleus. The electron and proton are attracted to each other.

Each water molecule is made from two hydrogen atoms chemically bonded to one oxygen atom. This means that the chemical formula of water is H₂O. Carbon dioxide is made of molecules of a carbon ...

Researchers from the University of Würzburg are opening up new horizons in chemistry: They present the world's first triple bond between the atoms boron and carbon. Prof. Dr. Holger Braunschweig, ...
