A group of researchers led by Drexel University has demonstrated a method that allows scientists to experimentally measure how the chemical bonds of materials are altered when two different materials ...

Theory predicts that the bond in this material is much more covalent than typical iron-oxygen bonds, which tend to be quite ionic in most iron-containing compounds.

A hydroquinone-embedded covalent organic framework (Tz-QH-COF) was designed to address photocatalyst instability in ...

The covalent bond is formed by an oxygen atom that sits between the nitrogen of one amino acid and the sulfur of another and acts like a redox-activated switch for the enzyme.

Chemistry students the world over are familiar with covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds. Now a study has revealed a strange variety of bond that acts like a hybrid of the two. Its properties raise ...

Home Articles Are 4f-Orbitals Engaged in Covalent Bonding Between Lanthanides and Triphenylphosphine Oxide? An Oxygen K-Edge X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy and Density Functional Theory Study ...

A detailed electron distribution study of the covalent bond in silicon is discussed. The study is based on the strategy employed earlier to define the covalent bond in diamond, and estimates of the ...

Covalent bonds, in which two atoms are bound together by sharing a pair of electrons, form the scaffolding that underpins the majority of organic compounds. In 1931, the Nobel Laureate Linus ...
