An iridium metal complex has been identified as a promising, if unconventional, new antibiotic drug, a new study finds. The compound is one of more than 600 produced in a study published in December ...

Since their discovery in the 1950s, metallocenes—chemical compounds where a metal atom sits "sandwiched" between two carbon rings—have been at the heart of organometallic chemistry research, finding ...

Tailor-made chemical complexes of certain elements from the group of metals could be suitable for use in a special way in medical imaging as well as potential applications in personalized precision ...

Like its chemical relative carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O) is an important greenhouse gas and the dominant ozone-depleting substance. Strategies for limiting its emissions and its catalytic ...

Scientists are putting the pedal to the metal to develop new antibiotics. Metal-based drugs can open a new world of medicine, especially as antimicrobial resistance is growing. Researchers have also ...

Researchers describe how large cyclic molecules can be used for the synthesis of big metallic complexes with two or more metal atoms. In polymetallic complexes, two or more metal atoms combine with ...
