“If we know the reactivity between singlet oxygen and contaminants, we can say how long it will take to degrade one specific structure of a contaminant down to half the concentration.” Minakata’s ...

Carbon-based catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction: Mechanistic understanding and porous structure Peer-Reviewed Publication. Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy Sciences ...

The book “Oxygen atom transfer reactions” is the first volume of the newly created book series Chemical Reaction Mechanisms at the Bentham Science publishing house. The first two volumes of ...

I think about oxygen a lot more than I used to. This is because I am studying a chemical defense that turns ordinary oxygen, the same old stuff we obtain from breathing air – the same stuff that is ...

Big numbers. We can start by making all the two-atom compounds.There are lots of these: N 2 (nitrogen) and O 2 (oxygen) together make up 99% of our air. It would probably take a chemist about a ...

Carbon dioxide is a chemical compound composed of one carbon and two oxygen atoms. It is often referred to by its formula CO2. It is present in the Earth's atmosphere at a low concentration and ...

Chemists have synthesized the first stable molecule whose chirality is solely attributed to a stereogenic oxygen, according to a new study (Nature 2023, DOI: 10.1038/s41586-023-05719-z). Though ...
