Chemical catalysts used to produce clean fuels gradually become less active. Dutch researcher Bas Vogelaar believes that the loss of sulphur atoms might be an important cause of this. He investigated ...

Researchers have now found evidence that double ionised sulphur dioxide contribute to the formation of oxygen molecules. This could, in particular, explain the presence of oxygen in sulphur ...

Sulfur–aromatic interactions arise from favourable contacts between the partially positive sulphur atom of methionine or cysteine side chains and the electron-rich π-systems of aromatic residues such ...

Sulfones, characterised by a divalent sulphur atom doubly bonded to oxygen and linked to two carbon centres, are indispensable scaffolds in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and advanced materials.

A key technical challenge in creating new sulphur-based medicines has been overcome, leading to the prospect of many new therapeutic 'weapons' in the fight against disease and illness. Every ...

The Journal of Sulfur Chemistry is an international journal for the dissemination of scientific results in the rapidly expanding realm of sulfur chemistry. The journal publishes high quality reviews, ...

Researchers have developed a simple method for making fluorescent dyes of many colors that can be activated by visible light. The method involves switching out a single oxygen atom in existing ...

A scheme showing two complex organic molecules with multiple ring systems: the one on the left contains a four-sided ring with an oxygen in it, and the one on the left is identical except that the ...

Researchers create cobalt single-atom catalysts in porous carbon nanofibers to speed redox reactions and stop polysulfide loss, improving lithium sulfur battery performance. (Nanowerk News) ...

Oxygen plays a crucial role for all living organisms on Earth. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have now found evidence that double ionised sulphur dioxide contribute to the formation of ...
