A research team at King’s College London has isolated a triangular aluminum compound, called a cyclotrialumane, that can ...

Aluminium redox catalysis and reactive aluminium clusters showcase main-group element's transition-metal-like reactivity ...

The chemists Philipp Dabringhaus, Julie Willrett and Prof. Dr. Ingo Krossing from the Institute of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry at the University of Freiburg have succeeded in synthesizing the ...

Platinum works beautifully. It speeds up chemical reactions, holds up under punishment, and sits reliably at the center of industrial processes worth billions of dollars annually.

As one of the most abundant elements in Earth’s crust, aluminium is cheap and an attractive subject for chemists to study. Aluminium in its usual +3 oxidation state (Al(iii)) has long been a staple of ...

Chemists have succeeded in synthesizing the low-valent cationic aluminum complex by a metathesis reaction. "In chemistry, cationic low-valent aluminum compounds are highly sought after due to their ...
