Researchers report that frozen hydrogen cyanide crystals can enable highly reactive chemistry at low temperatures.

Molecular simulations serve as a crucial tool in the quantitative understanding of chemical reaction equilibria by bridging atomistic interactions and macroscopic phenomena. Through advanced ...

Simulation of chemical bonds and reactions is expected to be one of the first applications for at-scale quantum computers. Physicists have now demonstrated the world-first simulation of a chemical ...

At the air-water interface, a negatively charged amino acid carries out a nucleophile attack on a gas molecule to convert it into a product. The reaction rate is enhanced due to significant reduction ...

Researchers have performed the first ever quantum-mechanical simulation of the benchmark ultracold chemical reaction between potassium-rubidium (KRb) and a potassium atom, opening the door to new ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Scientists have long suspected that a quantum phenomenon might play a role in photosynthesis and other chemical reactions of nature, but don’t know for sure because such a ...

Organic chemistry students and bench chemists alike rely on the Grignard reaction, a relatively simple way to make carbon-carbon bonds. But even though the reaction was first described 120 years ago, ...

Researchers develop an AI-based platform that integrates reaction data with catalyst performance for the design of new ...

Hydrogen cyanide, a toxic chemical, may have helped spark the chemistry that led to life. When frozen, it forms crystals with ...

The first contains a fine iron powder, salt, and water in a pouch that is permeable to air. When it is exposed to air, the iron begins to rust. This rusting process produces heat. The second contains ...
