Where diamond has a regular crystal structure, graphene (or at least the Platonic ideal of graphene) is a flat, single-atom-thick sheet of six-sided carbon rings. The hexagonal rings of six carbon ...

Boron, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen: these four elements can form chemical triple bonds with each other due to their similar ...

Graphyne is a crystalline form of carbon that is distinct from both diamond and graphite. Unlike diamond, where each atom possesses four immediate neighbors, or graphite, where each atom has three, ...

German chemists have created the first-ever boron-carbon triple bond which opens new possibilities for molecular innovation.

Straightforward skeletal editing chemistry now enables the direct insertion of nitrogen into carbon–carbon double bonds.

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 ...

Scientists in Germany have achieved something never seen before: creating a stable boron-carbon triple bond. While triple ...

KIMS and KAIST have developed a catalyst synthesis process and precision control technology to optimize carbon dioxide ...

Researchers have synthesised a triple bond between carbon and boron for the first time. This discovery could help chemists better understand chemical bonds and inspire other researchers to synthesise ...

For instance, carbon-derived materials like graphene are ... Like graphene, MAC is also a 2D or single atom-thick material. But unlike graphene where atoms are arranged in an ordered (crystalline ...
