Scientists at Kyoto University's Institute for Cell-Material Sciences have discovered a novel cluster compound that could prove useful as a catalyst. Compounds, called polyoxometalates, contain a ...

Zintl clusters and cluster compounds represent a fascinating intersection between inorganic and organometallic chemistry. Typically derived from the Zintl concept, these polyanionic species are ...

A research team has discovered clusters of aluminum atoms that have chemical properties similar to single atoms of metallic and nonmetallic elements when they react with iodine. The discovery opens ...

Metal clusters and coordination complexes represent a rapidly evolving area of research that bridges fundamental inorganic chemistry and practical applications in materials science, catalysis and ...

Synthesis of novel tin cluster compounds has expanded the number of tin atoms in an isolable cluster from 10 to 15 atoms, signaling a potential leap forward in the quest to controllably synthesize ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We present transition metal-embedded (T@Gan) endohedral Gaclusters as a favorable structural motif for superconductivity and develop empirical ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — To power entire communities with clean energy, such as solar and wind power, a reliable backup storage system is needed to provide energy when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t ...

Researchers synthesized three novel clusters that can each accelerate chemical reactions needed in organic chemistry to produce strong carbon-carbon bonds. The clusters comprise aluminum and rare ...
