The question left hanging in the chemical air was whether a methyl could have an independent existence. This caught the eye ...

A new study provides fresh insight into traditional acid-base chemistry by revealing that the mutual neutralization of isolated hydronium (H₃O⁺) and hydroxide (OH⁻) ions is driven by electron transfer ...

Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage the DNA inside cells if they build up. They may play a role in a range of diseases and the visible signs of aging. Antioxidants are another ...

Such reactions are omnipresent in the human body, but under certain circumstances can damage biomolecules. Whether nanoparticles are intracellular taken up leading to the activation of free radical ...

As Trump shutters Voice of America, officials in Beijing couldn’t be more pleased. Such reactions are surprisingly common ...

The bromination reactions and mechanisms are compared. UV light splits the bromine molecule into two reactive radicals, resulting in a very slow loss of amber bromine color. The radical bromine atoms ...
