More than 75 years after its initial discovery, scientists have created an organometallic molecule containing the ...

Where would carbon-based life be without carbon? There are 118 known chemical elements, but carbon is the fourth most abundant and perhaps the most important to human life. Everywhere you look ...

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

Since it was first synthesized in a post-WW2 American lab in 1949, berkelium has been a rebel of the periodic table, defying ...

Scientists in Germany have achieved something never seen before: creating a stable boron-carbon triple bond. While triple bonds exist between many element pairs, boron and carbon had stubbornly ...

Carbon, a chemical element, is found in all organic matter on Earth, from the plants and animals alive today to fossil fuels buried underground. It’s a key building block in the foods we eat, ...

Researchers have synthesised a triple bond between carbon and boron for the first time. This discovery could help chemists ...

Scientists have discovered “berkelocene,” the first organometallic molecule to be characterized containing the heavy element ...
