Benzene's structure can be clearly understood through its molecular arrangement. A benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal ring, with each carbon atom bonded to one ...

Life as we know it is based on the ability of the carbon atom to form ring-shaped molecules. But rings of carbon are not exclusive to Earth, as experts in space chemistry now know. A Spanish team of ...

Scientists have used computing power and clever modeling to solve a 200-year-old chemistry and math puzzle. For all these years, the question at play has been how to plot the electron structure of a ...

A research group has discovered that near-infrared absorbing dyes, which had previously been considered to have closed-shell electronic structures, have an intermediate electronic structure, between ...
