As a recent leap in green chemistry, scientists have unveiled a new catalyst that enables high yields of sulfones using molecular oxygen -- at close to room temperature. By fine-tuning the structure ...

Oxygen is a cornerstone of chemistry, largely because it is so good at building the organic molecules that make up our world. Some oxygen-based compounds called peroxides are famous for being highly ...

A team of chemists at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has succeeded in pulling an oxygen atom from a molecule and replacing it with a nitrogen atom. In their study, published in ...
