Meet graphene’s newest metallic cousin, goldene. For the first time, researchers have created a free-standing sheet of gold that’s just one atom thick. Goldene holds promise as “a great catalyst ...

I read with considerable interest the editorial “ ‘No Excuses’ for the Future of Green Chemistry” (C&EN, June 2/9, 2025, page 2) and the first installment of the new column on green chemistry, “The ...

Researchers developed a machine-learning model that can predict the structures of transition states of chemical reactions in less than a second, with high accuracy. Their model could make it easier ...

Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...

As the world moves away from gas towards electricity as a greener power source, the to-do list goes beyond cars. The vast global manufacturing network that makes everything from our batteries to our ...
